For His Pleasure

by Samuel C. Gipp

Soul winning is not the main theme of the Bible. Proverbs 11:30 tell us, “he that winneth souls is wise.” This truth has led to a tidal wave of “soul winning” in the Christian community over the past... This description may be from another edition of this product.

A Needed Viewpoint

Having been a part of the "fundamental revival of the seventies" (page 3) and a graduate of a major "soul winning" institution, I find this book to be most refreshing. I think that if I could count all the messages that I have heard about living "for His pleasure", I could count them on both hands. This book adds the needed balance (er, sorry, Bro. Gipp, I mean "temperance") that is missing most of the time in our fundamental churches. I believe that I have heard the phrase "soul winning is the main thing" or a variation of that in the church that I now attend. However, in defense of those who say it, it is a "cliche" that is just repeated without real "thought" put behind it. Dr. Gipp does a wonderful job making that very point. We are to THINK! I can't give five stars because of the typos in this book. I also don't like the "left justification" of the text. It makes it harder to read (for me). Thanks, Dr. Gipp, for this needed book.
