The best reference book on Christianity since Billy Graham
Charles Stanley blew me away with this one. This book is so packed with great info, and the one word i would use to describe it is "practical". He gives down to earth, realistic, christian life principles, that actually apply to living in today's crazy world. This book is hip and relevant. It also deals with some of the tough gray areas that christians encounter daily. This book is a keeper and a great place to go to when a question comes up in your christian faith...

Surprisingly Good
I am expressing surprise, not because I expected less of Charles Stanley, who is a great teacher, but because this book is an exhaustive reference work that will help those who serve in ministry. It must have taken a great deal of work on the part of the team at In Touch Ministries.

This book is carefuly divided into sections that reach almost all areas of the Christian life, from salvation to tongues to the Lord's Supper. In each section, Stanley shows his extensive knowledge of Scripture and his ability to teach the Word in a simple manner. He also sprinkles in many quotes and Scripture references for additional study. I'm a writer and I often use this book just to look up quotes on a particular subject not often found in traditional quote books.

If you're in ministry, this is a small, but worthy investment. Any passage you might have a question on will be answered in great detail. If you're a fundamentalist, you'll find it especially gratifying that Charles Stanley doesn't compromise on issues like speaking in tongues, the real meaning of repentance (one of the hi-lights of the book), and the security of our salvation.

I highly recommend this book. It will really compliment your study library.

A Wonderful Source
I have gone back to this book several times when seeking guidance on various situations. This is a book every Christian should read. It is a blessing to those who are working on their relationship with God. I have learned more from this book than I have in 20 years of listening to Sunday sermons. What I love about Dr. Stanley's teaching is that it is always scripturally-based. I've heard Dr. Stanley say many times that if he could not back up what he was saying with scripture, he wouldn't say it all. This book is written with the same kind of message.
