Do you read the Bible from time to time? Do you pray even when you are not in a crisis? Do you find one of the fruits of the Spirit at work in your life? If you answered yes to any of the above questions, then you are not a highly ineffective Christian. You need to discover what it takes to move to greater levels of ineffectiveness. This book will show you how.
Undertaking virtually no research and possessing limited personal experience, Chris Fabry has discovered what is at the root of ineffectiveness. With humor and razor-sharp irony, he identifies and elaborates on 77 key principles guaranteed to make you into the highly ineffective Christian that you never wanted to be. By applying these principles and by carefully avoiding certain key Scriptures, you'll discover how you can develop a weak and meaningless Christian life. Caution: this book may touch your sore spots.
