- Am I concerned for others?
- Am I governed by God’s Word?
- Do I delight in the church?
- Are the spiritual disciplines important to me?
- Do I yearn for heaven and to be with Jesus?
By bringing the lofty idea of “sanctification” into a helpful and convicting spotlight, this concise and insightful book will transform your spiritual life. Now with a new discussion guide for group or personal use to help you dive deeper into each question.
