Review: The Disciplines of the Christian Life by Eric Liddell

Synopsis: Eric Henry Liddell was a Scottish athlete, rugby union international player, and missionary. He is perhaps most well known as the subject of the Oscar-winning 1981 film Chariots of Fire, which depicted his experiences training and racing in the Olympics and the religious convictions that influenced him. In his book about spiritual disciplines, he outlines his own pattern for living which has as its foundation a daily Bible reading plan. (from the online description)

Review: If you are at all interesting in growing you life with Christ, you can do no better then to read and listen to Eric Liddell's advice on how to achieve that. He lived the principles he asserts in this book and it showed in the deeply loving and sacrificial life he lived, all for the love and glory of Christ Jesus. Although simple in prose and ideas, the meat of this work will require deep thought and study. With both compassion and honest, Liddell calls the Christian to a live worth the Blood of Jesus, and encourages all Christian to go deeper. Highly recommend this work as a repeat read for any Christian.
