‘There is nothing more important in the Christian life than beginning right. If we begin right we can go on right.’

I have for years felt the need of a book to put in the hands of those beginning the Christian life that would tell them just how to make a complete success of this new life upon which they were entering. I could find no such book, so I have been driven to write one. This book aims to tell the young convert just what he most needs to know. I hope that pastors and evangelists and other Christian workers may find it a good book to put in the hands of young converts. I hope that it may also prove a helpful book to many who have long been Christians but have not made that headway in the Christian life that they long for.

In this new large print edition, designed to make reading comfortable, the main text is followed by an enlightening sermon titled ‘How to be Inexpressibly Happy.’
