Neil T. Anderson has had many jobs, but his most important job has been to help people understand who they are in Christ. In this book he talks about his childhood, the people he has helped, Freedom in Christ Ministries, and the importance of the Holy Spirit.
About the Author-
Neil T. Anderson grew up in Minnesota, served in the U.S. Navy, obtained a degree in electrical engineering, and has worked as an aerospace engineer. He has also been a church pastor and seminary professor. He started Freedom in Christ in 1988.
My thoughts-
I have mixed feelings about this book. This book says on the cover that it is a memoir, but there was so much about other people and their problems that I didn’t learn much about Neil T. Anderson.
One of my favorite parts of the book was, “The Believer’s Identity in Christ” on page 124. It showed different Bible verses and a short synopsis of each. They made bookmarks of this and it has sold very well. I’m glad that so many people are learning their identity in Christ.
The section on “Paradigm Shifts” was interesting, because Anderson says that he has people pray for themselves, before he prays for them. I think that was a brilliant idea, because it has them focus on themselves and God.
This book was very interesting, but as a memoir, I’m not sure. And there was so much about other people. You will need to read it yourself to see what you think.
