Trust in the LORD with all thine heart, and lean not upon thine own understanding: In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. – Proverbs 3:5-6
“I have for years felt the need of a book to put in the hands of those beginning the Christian life that would tell them just how to make a complete success of this new life upon which they were entering. I could find no such book, so I have been driven to write one. This book aims to tell the young convert just what he most needs to know. I hope that pastors and evangelists and other Christian workers may find it a good book to put in the hands of young converts. I hope that it may also prove a helpful book to many who have long been Christians but have not made that headway in the Christian life that they long for.”
– Reuben A. Torrey

1 review for How to Succeed in the Christian Life
This is a phenomenal book by a great preacher of the past R. A. Torrey. He wrote it for new Christians to help them grow in their walk with Christ, but also for Christians who are not progressing in their walk with Christ. It’s two fold purpose is great to give to those new Christians and those seasoned saints not growing. In our church street evangelism ministry I personally give these out to new Christians or seasoned Christians who are not growing in Christ. Besides giving these out, it is also a great book to disciple new Christians one on one or done through a local church.
In the book he talks about just everything a growing Christian will need such as church membership, baptism with the Holy Ghost, evangelism, studying the Bible, assurance of salvation, prayer, etc. I’m very thankful that Aneko Press has put this book in their evangelism resources at a very low cost. As an evangelist myself, I have searched on the Internet for low budget friendly discipleship books to give to new Christians or seasoned saints, but some of the ones I’ve seen were way out of my budget and not affordable when purchased in large quantities. This book along with a few others have allowed me to purchase in large quantities and still stay within my budget. This book will be great for your local church evangelism outreaches or personal outreaches.
