A Prisoner, And Yet…by Corrie ten Boom
“A prisoner, and yet…so free!” said Corrie ten Boom, prisoner of the Nazis.
There are so many valuable books written for Christians who want to grow closer to the Lord.
Reading (or listening) to great books aids us considerably toward growth in Christ. As we apply ourselves, we gain insights, and some practical wisdom, too.
Good books help open the Word of God to us, enabling us to know the Lord better, and to love Him more.
However, we don’t want to read just any book out there that seems “spiritual” or has a great title. It’s critical that we judge books aright, so that we are not led astray from the truth. So finding the right books is key.
The following reviews include some books regarded as “classics” for the disciple of Christ, while others are hot off the press, approaching themes of interest to today’s believer.
These book reviews are not literary criticisms, nor scholarly treatments. They provide a brief synopsis of each title, and the impact each book had on this author.
Included are some of the best books I’ve read, favorites who have become like friends to me. From my shelf to yours, these “friends” have impacted my life, and many others, besides.
Perhaps, some of these books will become your friends, as well!
Here’s to nourishing our hungry souls, by feasting on some great thoughts, from some great books.
“A prisoner, and yet…so free!” said Corrie ten Boom, prisoner of the Nazis.
“‘It doesn’t matter, really, how great the pressure is,…It only matters where the pressure lies.” HT
The truths in this book are foundational for living a victorious Christian Life.
This powerful treasure is a classic, worthy of consideration for Christians today.
