This book is written to help readers experience the stability of single-minded devotion to Christ. John Eckhardt points to the signs of double-mindedness and provides keys for deliverance and restoration. Eckhardt discusses how to build a strong foundation of Christ-like identity, and how to use this foundation to overcome broken marriages, indecision, passivity, false teachings, materialism, and more.
“The power of God cannot be sustained in any church that is filled with so much bitterness. Unforgiveness and bitterness will stop a move of God. These things harden people’s hearts and make it impossible for the Spirit of God to have free course. The Bible says that God is nigh unto them with a contrite spirit. (See Psalm 34:18.) Brokenness and repentance are necessary. You cannot have revival when bitterness is in the hearts of believers. Bitterness is a poison that will contaminate a church.” (Page 21)
“To excel means to surpass others or be superior in some respect or area; do extremely well.8 God created us to excel in life. He wants us to excel. We need stability in order to excel.” (Page 6)
