Dans ce livre, John MacArthur rappelle aux pasteurs de ne pas oublier la raison pour laquelle ils passent d'innombrables heures à préparer des sermons, à rendre visite à des personnes malades, à conseiller et à célébrer des mariages, surtout lorsque la ligne d'arrivée semble lointaine et qu'ils sont tentés d'abandonner.

The Christian life is a process of growing in holiness, our natural response to the good news of our redemption in Christ. This kind of growth is gradual, and obstacles are plentiful. Thankfully, we don't have to go it alone. God has given us his Spirit so that we can overcome temptation and become more and more conformed to the image of Christ. But how does the Spirit work? What is the nature of our own personal involvement in the process? And how do we know if we are making progress?
