My thoughts: Hands down a High Water mark for this book. One of the most life-changing books (right next to the Bible) I have ever read. I did the study that goes along with this book with a small group that meets at my house and it was an amazing experience. I can honestly say that my relationship with Christ has not been the same since reading this book and it has changed for the better. Highly, highly recommended for anyone that is wondering what being a Christ-follower is all about or someone looking grow in their faith.

P.S. I realize opinions on this may vary, but at least read the book before you make up your mind.
