Summary: Found Out
Comment: John Fischer confronts and exposes what we wanted no one to know: That we are all, in one aspect or another, a Recovering Pharisee. Yet, like any 'a-holic' there is something terribly freeing to declare ourselves to be the sinners that we are; without pretension or mask to 'cover ourselves'.
Reading this book which is so brutally honest you cannot help but change, at least one day at a time, into an authentic Christian who will confess on any given day: I am a sinner in need of a Savior...that if I were to be considered for my merit, my 'holiness', my thought life, my true self; I would be considered scumm. That it's not about me, but about Christ!
12 Steps for a Recovering Pharisee (like me) is a book everyone should read. Then keep it next to you during your 'quite time', so that when you go to the Lord, you will go humbly, sincerely, and thankfully.
I recommend this book with all my heart!

Summary: A Large Dose of Humility
Comment: In a day when many Christians are so concerned with the moral state of the world around them, John Fischer provides us a wakeup call: the problem isn't others, it is each of us. He speaks about the dangers of spiritual pride, when we hold others (as well as ourselves) to impossible spiritual and moral standards--and when we condemn those who fail to measure up. The examples Fischer uses range from in-depth examination of biblical stories to the sometimes painful reality of his personal experiences. For this book is, in the end, not about something about which he wishes to convict us; rather, it is about something the Lord has been busy dealing with in the life of John Fischer. As I read, I also saw myself here--recognizing how far I, as a "recovering Pharisee," have come in certain areas, and being humbled to see how little progress I have made in many others. This is a necessary book for today, much in the same urgent vein as Dietrich Bonhoeffer's THE COST OF DISCIPLESHIP. It breaks apart our carefully constructed spiritual masks and opens us to the truth about ourselves. And that truth--which is indeed God's perspective on our lives--will set us free. . . .
