8/10 (very good): Ostensibly this is Jerry Bridges reflections on 65 years of Christian service, but in reality it is a look back at the lessons he has learned concerning the providence and sovereignty of a God. Written in Bridges’ usual concise and clear style, it’s a rather dull memoir, but a very helpful exemplar on the different ways God works in our lives, both in terms of how he guides us, and also how he works all things together for our good. It would be particularly helpful for youngish Christians who are looking for guidance, and older Christians perhaps disappointed with some aspects of their lives. ( )

Very interesting autobiography of Jerry’s life. Quite a story. ( )
