Summary: Clarion Call to a Holiness and Consecration
Review: In 2004 our church used "Returning to Holiness" as a devotional during a forty-day period of prayer and fasting. The experience was powerful for our congregation and the book aided in challenging our church members to spiritual cleansing and consecration. Frizzell has written the book primarily to be used for church-wide times of seeking God but it would also be beneficial to individuals.

"Returning to Holiness" is a hard hitting and convicting work that strongly calls believers to a life of personal holiness and consecration. It covers every area of sin and impurity imaginable. For the mature and grounded Christian it is a clarion call to a God-honoring life-style. I'd caution those who are subject to self-condemnation and spiritual insecurity that this book needs to be read with heavy doses of encouragement and grace. We are all a work in progress. For the individual I'd give it four stars but as a devotional during a congregational Sacred Assembly, I know of no better resource. As such I give it 5 stars.

Church leaders will find helpful instructions on conducting a special time of church-wide spiritual emphasis. I'd recommend a pastor carefully read through the book before taking a congregation through it. If you are planning to buy an individual copy AMAZON.COM is a good place to order from. Should you plan to buy copies to distribute to a large group of people, I'd recommend contacting Dr. Frizzell's office directly. They are able to provide the books in bulk at an exceptional price.
