MY REVIEW:

Filled with personal stories to support its main points, this book instructs you on how to overcome the 'barriers' that prevent you from reaching your highest, God-given potential.

Mr. Frenn outlines the three "pillars" that you need to establish in your life in order to break the barriers: 1) The Heart of the Father, 2) The Wisdom of the Son, and 3) The Discipline of the Holy Spirit.

The only thing I didn't like about this book was Mr. Frenn's tendency to repeat points over and over. It got a little redundant. Otherwise, though, this book was really good, and I found it to be full of hope and inspiration.

Rated: B+
