I personally enjoyed reading this book (Disclaimer: I'm a huge Dr. Stanley fan), but I can see how others might find it dry in places. Dr. Stanley cuts to the chase and lays it out how it is: there are no shortcuts around suffering , sin affects everyone it touches, everything God does has a purpose and eternal value, for example. Those looking for a touchy-feely book would walk away unsatisfied. Those who want the truth, regardless of how it's delivered, would enjoy this book. ( )

Dr. Stanley gives the reader practical advice in easy steps to get back on the path with God. His insights are backed up by biblical references and stories. ( )
