This is a refreshing and enjoyable look at the Christian life. We are not promised a life of ease, but one that will lead to joy. The book belongs alongside such classics as Hind’s Feet in High Places.

Great book, but I’d love to see the audio book actually have real chapter breaks instead of “chapters” that are actually composed of multiple chapters.

This book is so important. I think it really teaches the listener a lot about how to read, understand and apply biblical content. It paints a full picture of the past, present and future of being a Christ-follower.

A Classic... A Must Read

A wonderful and much needed journey through the Songs of Assents (Psalms 120-134), led gently by a gracious and scholarly shepherd. Many insights into the proper approach to scripture: read carefully, slowly, prayerfully, humbly, etc. Almost demands acquiring a hard copy to read, re-read, and pray through quietly and slowly. .

Akin to a conversation with a wise uncle!
