Andy Stanley's "Louder Than Words" is one of the most simple yet powerful books I have ever read. Everyone should read this book. I feel that everyone can benefit immensely from it! Beautifully written!

So Practicle. So Applicable!

This book is a must-have for anyone, any age and any stage.

Louder Than Words

This book was so well written and so applicable to my life, but to be honest, it would be so for pretty much any body's life. And to be completely honest with you, Andy Stanley is such a great speaker and writer that I recomend just about any sermon or book by him. He has such a unique, but basic view on things and how they should be, and he is very well gifted in getting them across. He can make something as "everyday" as the Lord's Prayer not just interesting, but captivating. So, to get back to the book, If you're looking to not just improve your character but actually understand what character is, this is the book for you.

Even if you're not jealous, angry, greedy, prideful, or dishonest...

I challenge you to read this book. Even if you are none of the things above, chances are you know someone who is. So buy the book for them (but read through a bit yourself). Andy writes like a person carrying on a conversation with you. He constructs scenarios that leave you with a handful of questions, and then he answer them one at a time with practical advice and scriptural support. This is a book about integrity and character. Andy provides real solutions that you can start implementing in your life immediately to start combating each character issue. You will see yourself, and the people around you, very differently after reading this book. You won't regret this change. I bought this book for each of the 11th grade guys in my small group. If you are a father, I recommend buying 2 copies and reading it along with your teenage son or daughter. Maybe schedule coffee every other week, and discuss one chapter per sitting. Andy says that every day you are either growing closer to, or further away, from the person you want to be. This book is a guide for those who desire to be deliberate about becoming the person they wish they were all along.

The book on godly character development !! :0) AA +++

This is a great book to read on Christian character development, what it means to grow gracefully in the Lord, to learn about poise and elegance from the liberation of being obedient to God (and they are not burdensome :) , how our reverence to the Almighty slowly changes our character and our willingness to go through such changes in light of a person's reverence for God. Character is a reflection of our inner being. Stanley includes appropriate biblical passages, it is a must read book for anyone who wants to develop their character to the likeness of our Lord & Savior Jesus Christ.
