I read this with amazing Elizabeth, and the dialogue was good. I find myself going back through my life and seeing that God has been steering me toward "The Room of Grace" rather than "The Room of Good Intentions" in order to release me. It took a while to figure that out, but I think I am on the train. :)

"There is no releasing without maturing.
There is no maturing without healing.
There is no healing without gifts of grace.
There are not gifts of grace out The Room of Grace.
There is not Room of Grace without a door marked
Living Out of Who God Says I am , opened with a doorknob of Humility.
There is no humility without choosing to walk a road called Trusting God.
Only then do I learn how God stands with me to resolve my sin."

This book is a great resource for ordinary people who want to develop extraordinary character.… (mehr)
