Editorial Reviews

In this little volume Richard Bewes has produced another treasure – a masterpiece of practical Christianity, really – for the Lord's people everywhere. Here is a book you can give to a seasoned believer, a new Christian, or someone just pondering the claims of faith. A special gift from one of the
most gracious ministers of the gospel I have known.

Richard Bewes is a long-distance runner and a true soldier of the Lord. This is a book that – with its balance of the Spiritual and Practical – is urgently needed to help us avoid the serious mistakes made in Christian work and ministry. I would urge all to read it and obtain extra copies for others. We can learn so much from the passing on of this valuable legacy.

I have some advice for you. If you are a 'dipper in', whatever you do, don't do what I did: my first 'dip' was page one, and the first sentence and I was hooked. I couldn't stop reading till I reached the very end! I can't think of anyone who has Richard Bewes' capacity for the telling detail; who is his equal in the helpful development of an idea and in the apt illustration drawn both from wide reading
and a wide experience of life and Christian ministry.
