I have read through this book each year for the last 8 years. Each chapter is devoted to an area in our life that calls for Godly disipline and each year I read through it again to hem in the loose ends. (

LOVE THIS BOOK! Elliott is one of my favorite authors. I bought this to enhance my study of the spiritual disciplines and it helped me grow in a my understanding of true intimacy with the Father.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 080073131X, Paperback)

In our age of instant gratification and if-it-feels-good-do-it attitudes, self-discipline is hardly a popular notion. Former missionary and beloved author Elisabeth Elliot offers her understanding of discipline and its value for modern people. Now repackaged for the next generation of Christians, Discipline: The Glad Surrender shows readers how to -discipline the mind, body, possessions, time, and feelings -overcome anxiety -change poor habits and attitudes -trust God in times of trial and hardship -let Christ have control in all areas of life Elliot masterfully and gently takes readers through Scripture, personal stories, and lovely observations of the world around her in order to help them discover the understanding that our fulfillment as human beings depends on our answer to God's call to obedience.
