Who is reading this
Probably the 2nd most life-changing thing I've ever read, apart from the Bible, & Piper's "Desiring God". Simple. Profound. & Refreshing. I read it 5 times in row the first month I owned it, and at least 3 times since then, and am now re-reading it for the 9th time, and it's kicking my bottom just like it did the first time! That's just to say: WOW! GOOD BOOK!
