There aren't many people in this world who consider any criticism "constructive." Most "suggestions" offered by others, although spoken in "truth and love" more times than not, result in an immediate wall of defense being constructed. This book, however, while not purposely written to point out anyone's personal flaws, is certainly a perfect tool for self reflection. While reading this book, time after time, I saw pieces of myself (pieces that definately need attention) written so plainly. And what was so effective, and greatly appreciated, is that each characteristic described was followed by instructions of not just "why," but "how" to overcome these areas of weakness. And get this, here's a new one, these instructions were not the author's opinion; rather, they were from God's Holy Word. No doubt this author did his homework-and this reader was fed. Certainly, after such a wonderful "meal" consisting of all the food groups (love, kindness, forgiveness, patience, faith, humility, etc.) this reader will grow stronger and wiser in her walk. And I feel confident in saying this will be the result for anyone who is smart enough and blessed enough to read this book. Kudos to Dr. Cummings for his courage to and thoroughness in speaking the truth. I beleve all christians need to hear it and will benefit greatly from it. I'm looking forward to any "sequels" that I hope will follow.ARB
