Genuine and wholesome spirituality. This is the goal of all Christian living. It sounds so simple, doesn't it? Perhaps the principle may be, but living by the principle is another matter altogether. Ryrie reminds you that "the Bible must be the guide and test for all our experiences in the spiritual life...and if any experience fails to pass the test, it must be discarded." He warns that "an unbalanced application of the doctrines related to spirituality will result in an unbalanced Christian life." Ryrie examines key issues of spirituality, including sanctification, temptation, routine faithfulness and using your gifts.
