Discipline
The Glad Surrender
Find Happiness and Freedom by Surrendering Your Life to God
· From beloved author Elisabeth Elliot
· Develop a deeper understanding of the spiritual disciplines
· Covers all areas of life, including mind, body, time, possessions, and feelings
In our age of instant gratification and if-it-feels-good-do-it attitudes, self-discipline is hardly a popular notion. Yet it may be one of the most important lost virtues of our time. In Discipline, former missionary and beloved author Elisabeth Elliot offers her understanding of discipline and its value for people of all times. Sheshows readers how to
-
discipline the mind, body, possessions, time, and feelings
-
overcome anxiety
-
change poor habits and attitudes
-
trust God in times of trial and hardship
-
let Christ have control in all areas of life
Elliot masterfully and gently takes readers through Scripture, personal stories, and incisive observations of the world around her to help them discover the understanding that our fulfillment as human beings depends on our answer to God's call to obedience.
