A stand-out book on Christian living

I purchased this book because it was recommended as a great follow-up to his book In Pursuit of Holiness. I'm glad I followed the recommendation. The Practice of Godliness made me see that all my efforts for God were being done with the wrong motivation.

Instead of putting God's honor as my prime motivation for serving Him, I was serving Him to win some sort of victory for myself. I had some sort of internal score card that I could check off.

I got so much out of this book that I'm off to read it again.


A Great Realistic Book for Everyone

My Disciplship class has used the book and workbook and we all love it!! Jerry Bridges breaks down each Godliness characteristic into a wholistic view of leading Godly lives. Also, the book's structure is great for leading/growing us throughout the book. Throughout the book Jerry references bible passages which was very important to me and our class. We're moving on to his Pursuit of Holiness book next, and can't wait.

Christian living - This book hits the heart

This book I think God (Holy Spirit) pointed to me in the used book store. It describes the different characteristics of being like God , and how to emulate Him. It takes no short cuts or easy routes, and lays down the difficulties that we (as sinners) all have in measuring up, but only through prayer, practice and the power of the risen Christ can we get there. The many passages from the Bible are used well thoughout.

'Make every effort to live in peace with all men.' (Hebrews 12:14)






The practice of Godliness

Biblical based book that is easy to read and practical for today's lifestyles.

For those who are serious about spiritual growth

This book is the sequel to "The Pursuit of Holiness" and is equally an incredible guide to spiritual growth. It is so rich with instruction that some chapters need to be read and reread, thought through and taken to heart. These two books will admonish you to a committed lifestyle of surrender and obedience as they reveal a sovereign and omnipotent God Who desires our fellowship, and will lavish upon us His love as He directs our path. I've bought several copies of both to give to friends who are seeking God with their whole heart and desire to walk in His Presence and under His direction.

How can you develop Godly character?

"Godliness is more than a character trait," writes Jerry Bridges. "It is a foundational spiritual quality that makes the entire Christian life dynamic, effective, and pleasing to God."

Growing in godliness is a two-fold process. It involves an ever-deepening devotion to God, and developing a character that is steadily transformed into His likeness. This companion study guide to Jerry Bridges' book The Practice of Godliness will help you grow in your fear of, love for, and devotion to God-the three essentials to a godly life. As you learn how to take on God's character, you'll explore how to let the Holy Spirit cultivate the fruit of God's character traits in your life.
