SO YOU WANT TO BE LIKE CHRIST? - by Charles R. Swindoll

In a world bent on enticing us away from growing deeper in love with Christ, how on earth do we become more godly?

As Chuck Swindoll says, “The secret lies in our returning to the basic disciplines of Christ. Religion won't cut it! We live in a spiritual hothouse where we talk religious talk, send out religious letters, write religious pamphlets, and do religious Bible studies. It's so easy to become religious instead of godly.”

The Bible says we must “discipline ourselves for the purpose of godliness.” You really want to be like Christ? Here are eight essential disciplines to get you there:

• INTIMACY: Deepening Our Lives
• SIMPLICITY: Uncluttering Our Minds
• SILENCE and SOLITUDE: Slowing Our Pace
• SURRENDER: Releasing Our Grip
• PRAYER: Calling Out
• HUMILITY: Bowing Low
• SELF CONTROL: Holding Back
• SACRIFICE: Giving Over

In the process of developing these disciplines in your life, your relationship with Christ will flourish and you will become more godly. They go hand-in-hand.

This powerful book can help set your feet on the path to godliness, even in the midst of an increasingly Godless world.
