The Challenge Of A Disciplined Life
BY RICHARD FOSTER SECONDHAND. Fair condition, good reading copy. Subsequently renamed "The challenge of the disciplined life" - and having been stopped by customs trying to take the book into Holland I can sympathize. In fact great advice from the best selling, but largely unknown to Quakers, Quaker, about how to live an ethical life. Good scriptural index at end.
