A timely book, by one of the most important voices in the Church today. James Goll has modeled this lifestyle for decades. Only in eternity will any of us realize the full advantage we have in life because of those who paid such a price to appear before the Lord on our behalf. The Lifestyle of a Watchman will provide the reader with insight, inspiration and a challenge. In the wisdom forged only in trial, James takes on the monumental task of equipping us for this challenge, but he does so in doable bite-sized pieces. Brilliant!
