I have never read another book quite like this. Erwin has an amazing ability to speak straight to your soul. It is as if his words have the ability to create a canal from your brain directly to your heart. So many times, I had to put down the book to gasp for breath, ashamed at the level of life I am currently living and enthralled by the possiblity of eventual and heroic change.

Erwin breakdown the chucky virtures of Faith, Hope and Love to a mirco level, making it easier for them to permeate into our system to produce the kind of person and the level of living Jesus calls us to.

Breathtaking, enlarging and dangerously poetic, this book is truly nothing short of a Revolution.

I bought all three of the author's books at the same time. I tried to read them in the order, in which he wrote them, but found this book to be the only one I could read immediately. As the Quakers say, "it spoke to my condition. "

I didn't ever think that "wholeness" as McManus writes of it was possible. As a member of a twelve step group, I thought of myself in recovery not recovered. But McManus points out that your brokenness can be healed. This doesn't mean you are perfect, but your focus no longer has to be on yourself.

I found that what he says is true as a spiritual healing has just taken place in my life. I really appreciate McManus explanation of spiritual wholeness. I've never heard anyone explain it before.

This is McManus' third book and is directed towards inner character and passion for Christ. I could not read a chapter without examining my own life to see where I stood in areas of forgiveness, gratitude, and wisdom. I highly recommend this to you.
