Trade Review'My friend and brother in Christ has given us a timely reflection on walking with a holy God. R.T., a man whom we are proud to recognize as a graduate of Trevecca, blends careful exegesis with lived experience. This equals wisdom. In a world bent on seeking pleasure and seeking to please, it is grounding to realize that we can, in Christ, please the God who knit us together, called us by name, and poured his life into us. I pray that you may emerge from this book with a purer desire to please God.' *

'As a child, I desired to please my father. Nothing seemed more important than putting a smile on his face and hearing him say, 'Well done.' Likewise, every Christian should desire to please his heavenly Father. In his new book Pleasing God, R.T. Kendall shares biblical steps to experience the Lord's pleasure. Read and apply it, and you'll experience God's affirming smile.' *
