I'm almost done reading this book, and oh my!!! What a great read. I love books that call you to a closer relationship with God. I sometimes find myself not worshiping with all that I have, or not taking my relationship with the Lord as serious as I should. This book is really a call to accountability. Sunday might be the only day of the week that you are formally in church, so get excited! Show Him that you love Him everyday! Get real with Him!

recommends it for:
anyone who is comfortable in their relationship with God.
This book was amazing to read.
Grace is taught so prevalently but where is the Fear of God? That question was something I never considered, but it needs to be answered.
I had to lay down some misconceptions and definitely realize that I needed to change somewhat how I view God. But the book was amazing.
Especially to anyone who thinks they already have all the answers and knows everything.

everybody!
good book...eye opening...makes you truly think about what it means to 'fear' the Lord and see how irreverant we all are to the things of the Lord and His Word, the Bible...
Sometimes, this book can be a bit hard to understand or the author draws his examples from his life experiences and it can be hard to relate to him...however, for the most part this is a great and convicting book!

Revelation upon revelation of how I am supposed to live as a Christian. What it truly means to fear the Lord and the blessings that result from fearing Him more and more are exponential:)

This was an amazing book, it really opens up the issue of fearing man instead of fearing God, and how we often fear man a whole lot more than we should!
