About this audiobook
Many Christian families have never experienced the joys and benefits of family worship. But as Donald S. Whitney makes clear, the daily worship of God by families at home is a practice rooted in the Bible and common throughout Christian history. How can people unfamiliar with family worship lead it in their own homes? How do busy households in today's culture recover faithfulness in family worship? This practical book shows you how simple and easy it can be.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I take all of the families at church through this book. It's brief, easy to read, and helpful. Many modern families have no concept of what family worship is, what it looks like, or how to do it. This book serves as a great primer for any parent.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5How is your spiritual life, Christian?Most people would respond to such a question with mixed responses. In some areas we are doing well. In other areas we struggle greatly. In both responses we would probably include all sorts of caveats, justifying our struggles and hedging our bets on our successes.In Ten Questions to Diagnose Your Spiritual Health, Donald Whitney takes on the role of spiritual doctor and guides the leader through a self-diagnosis of their own spiritual health. He offers up ten questions (each with an accompanying chapter) that helps the reader look deeper into their soul. He covers areas like obedience to God's word, our willingness to forgive others, and how we deal with personal sin. Each chapter cuts at the reader like the scalpel in the hands of a surgeon. Dr. Whitney builds each chapter on biblical evidence and bolsters his arguments with frequent quotes from Puritan authors. I believe this book has its most value in the life of a person who has been a Christian for a while. It is so easy to become stagnant on one's spiritual journey. We "grow at ease in Zion," so to speak. Ten Questions to Diagnose Your Spiritual Health is an amazing tool to help us examine ourselves and identify areas where we can grow in Christlikeness.I am currently using this book with a both my church staff and a group of men. I highly recommend it!
