Baker Discipline: The Glad Surrender, repackaged edition

"We have come to imagine that discipleship is somehow an 'extra.' ... Yet to be a Christian in New Testament terms is to be a disciple. There are no two ways about it."

With honesty and grace, beloved author Elisabeth Elliot guides you to a deeper understanding of discipline. It is not merely self-improvement or developing specific routines. Discipline defines the very shape of your Christian life. In Discipline, you'll learn to control various areas including body, mind, time, possessions, work, and feelings. Discover how to place every aspect of your life under God's authority and find happiness and freedom there.

This book, besides the bible, has been one of the greatest help throughout my walk with God. The first time I read it, I didn't really understand it. However, I recently read it again and the words just jumped off the page! I totally understood the first three chapters(which had been a meaningless waste of paper at first) I realized that she's trying to show you what discipline is and how it works. Also, I love how much scipture she puts in this book, it is just filled with it! Again, beside the bible, this book has helped me grow in my walk with God! Read it, you won't regret it!

I bought the book because I knew discipline was sadly lacking in my life and was the single biggest spiritual hindrance. I had grown to respect Elliot's work and felt she would not mess around with me. I was surprised to find in this book that she really seems to have a dual objective: 1) to deal with the subject matter of discipline which she does effectively and 2) to defend the Catholic church.
