Develop Your Character uses this powerful book.
The Life You've Always Wanted by John Ortberg offers modern perspectives on the ancient path of the spiritual disciplines. But it is more than just a book about things to do to be a good Christian. It's a road map toward true transformation that starts not with the individual but with the person at the journey's end--Jesus Christ.
Develop Your Character uses the Proverbs Bible Reading Plan.
The Book of Proverbs is full of godly wisdom, the ability to see and engage life as God prescribes. Solomon, the wisest King of Israel, shares wisdom from the golden years of his life. Solomon explains how our character influences our approach to business, money, ambition, discipline, family, and politics, making it a perfect reading plan to Develop Your Character.
