Joyce Schutt

This is book that I call a “how to” book. Whether you start at the beginning or just randomly open the book and start reading there is insightful lessons and reflections that are very useful for living our lives in a Christian way. There are “how to’s” no matter what page you read.
Allen

Practical Christianity is just that, practical. Mark tackles difficult topics while providing recommendations, scripture, and thought provoking questions. He does not shy away from nuance when broad strokes would be considered the safe approach. A biblical resource worth having in your library.
