This is a challenging book about recalibrating your heart in order to become more godly. It consists of 31 short chapters which show us that we shouldn’t follow our own heart but instead follow God’s desires. The author uses examples from Scripture to show us how when we follow our own flawed hearts, disaster follows, and how instead we should change our attitudes and actions and become more like God. It is an easily readable book that you can turn to again and again and still find new nuggets of wisdom.

My favourite chapter was about Joseph and how the sovereignty of God worked out in his life despite changing circumstances. It is insightful and contains thought provoking statements like ‘the existence of an evil slave trade was part of God’s plan’.

This book is available to purchase from Amazon.
