I am tempted to call this book charming because it is quotable. However, it would be a disservice to the intent of the author. Here is a book that underscores the integrity of a saint, not by his sound theology, but by their sincerity and purity. God does not respond to the chief scholar, nor the one with the highest intellect. These are to no advantage to God as His power is made perfect in weakness. The book here is sobering to the hungry soul and encouraging to anyone seeking counsel and clarity in their faith. There is a fatherly tone that underscores the book and it is comforting in that it does not mean to comfort the reader by tickling the ear. God means to make mature sons and daughters whether they walk in the darkest valley as in the shadow of death, or whether they live in comfort. It is, in essence, a book written to underscore that it is communion that God desires from His people.
