Summary: Simple, practical, and encouraging
Comment: This book is a simple and practical help toward Christian growth. Each chapter is full of the "how-to" aspect of living a life of spiritual discipline. But even more than that, Whitney displays a pastor's heart on these pages, urging his brothers and sisters onward toward the Christian life to which we are called in Scripture. This is not a difficult book to read by any means, but what it calls us to do is a lifetime mission. Buy this book, read it over and over - maybe once a year - and pursue spiritual discipline! Doing so will help you grow more and more like Christ, slowly but surely.

Summary: Wish I could buy a copy for every Christian I know.
Comment: In the past I have not been too thrilled to read or hear about spiritual disciplines. It made me feel guilty for falling so far short - I always felt overwhelmed. But this book presents the spiritual disciplines (Bible reading and meditation, Scripture memorization, prayer, stewardship, evangelism, etc.) in such a way that not only do I have a clear understanding of why they're so necessary to Christian growth, but I also am so tremendously inspired to do them! They've changed in my perspective from being things I *ought* to do to being things I *want* to do (and *can* do). I frequently read Christian books and have taken a lot of discipleship courses, but I don't know when I've learned so much in such a short period of time. This man is an incredible teacher. If it's your desire to grow as a Christian, please don't miss this one.

Summary: A Classic work in an age where discipline is all but dead!
Comment: This book is a definate MUST read for the Christian Person. The information is supported by a wealth of Scripture, and little (if any at all) of Whitney's opinions.
Regardless of where a person is at in their journey toward sanctification, this book will convict. This book forces one to ask questions that are not "comfortable". Questions that one might even lie to themselves about.
When we strip away the veil that we all tend to hide behind from time to time, when we look in the mirror honestly, we see that Jesus Christ is not manifest in our lives the way that He must be.
Donald S. Whitney has broken down the spiritual disciplines into clear, concise and easy to understand chapters. This book has served to wet my appatite for glorifying my God and my Savior Jesus Christ.
Contrary to a review above, this book is much more than a "Why" Book. That would be incomplete!! Whitney gives SIMPLE methods and grand analogies that make the disciplines easy to apply (the HOW)! Get this book and read through it often!
