ARE YOU OVERWHELMED BY
THE WEIGHT OF THE WORLD?
Let's face it - we live in a complex world. Technology improves daily, and with it, the pace
increases. Surrounded by driving forces, it is no small wonder that our spiritual lives take a hit.
But if the weight of the world is hindering your walk with the Lord, maybe now is the time to step
back and evaluate.
Life on earth was less hectic in Jesus' time. He faced incredible challenges and suffered agonizing trials, but there was simplicity in His relationship with His Father that we can emulate. In that simplicity, we can realize our greatest fulfillment as believers. If your Bible study seems as tedious as filing your tax return, and your prayer life as wearisome as trying to understand your phone bill, stop. Take a deep breath. Let author Donald Whitney show you how rewarding the simple Christian life can be.

Comments from people who have used this material:
"Clear, concise, biblical, and practical! Just what we have come to
expect from Whitney's pen. Here is help for our increasingly
complicated and cluttered lives. With uncanny ability the author draws a
straight line from principle to practice and then shows us how to walk
the line."
Alistair Begg, senior pastor, Parkside Church, Cleveland, Ohio
"Whitney is particularly comcerned with keeping our spirituality
simple and biblical. He offers his readers short, to the point advice
that is rich, yet easy to digest. Whitney provides fresh and
thought-provoking insights into the mechanics of many age-old Christian
disciplines designed to deepen our spiritual life in Christ. He also
helps us understand the real power and purpose of each, giving examples
from the private spiritual lives of various godly men."
