ABOUT HABITS OF
HIGHLY EFFECTIVE CHRISTIANS

Using personal anecdotes from years in foreign missions work, the author shares rich biblical insights into familiar subjects. He makes fasting doable, tells how to pray in the will of God, elevates obedience as the highest criterion for God’s rewards, and defines personal success in terms that eliminate the pride and intimidation that result from comparisons with others. This book turns self-discipline into a wonderful key for personal growth, and crises into stepping stones for self-development. These habits can change your outlook, maybe even your world.

“If you want to be challenged to think deeper, go further, and live your Christian faith more fully and fruitfully, then run to get this book. Ron takes on all the big issues of the Christian life: character, perseverance, family, money, evangelism, obedience . . . With his direct and plainspoken application of Scripture and lessons learned from his own rich life, he will make you think anew about yours. As you become excited about God's purposes for you, you will fall in love with Him all over again. This book will change you. I promise." Barbara Wolfer, housewife, zealous Christian and English Professor.

“Ron Meyers’ book is a superb resource for maturing Christians who want to be challenged, encouraged, and counseled in living lives that count for Christ. For group or individual study, it can be fruitfully read front to back to grow a vision for godly living or dipped into as a reference work on specific problem areas. Ron has written from his experience as a successful husband and father of two sons (now both dynamic Christian adults), a depth of biblical knowledge, and a wealth of personal experience, including over twenty years as a missionary in two different cultures. To top it off, this warm and readable work has all the humanity of a man in love with his Lord and his subject. It is witty and wise, and I hardily recommend it.” Wayne Martindale, Author, C.S. Lewis Scholar and Professor of English Literature at Wheaton College.
