This spells out basic concepts of Christianity that are frequently forgotten/missed/misunderstood in all different Christian denominations. I studied theology, Bible, and Catholic apologetics for six years during school, and somehow the fundamental ideas that Hannah Whitall Smith articulates were completely lost to me. This book is valuable.
Hannah Whitall Smith--believer, rebel, realist--faced life as she found it, and she found it good. She took God's promises literally, tested them, and found them true.
Here she reveals how to make unhappiness and uncertainty give way to serenity and confidence in every day of your life.
This book is amazing - it bolstered my faith and inspired me to pursue an even deeper relationship with Jesus Christ.
God revealed grace to this woman many years before the grace movement.
She describes it as the secret to a happy Christian life. She is correct. God's grace brings happiness, life, liberty, and love into our lives. One of my favorite books of all time.
I think this is probably very good, just not suitable for me to listen to as an audiobook.

This classic work on God's grace remains relevant to today's reader.
