Children of the Second Birth, (Hardcover)

Shoemaker, Jr., a prominent leader in the Oxford Group movement and a significant influence on the foundations of modern spiritual recovery programs, this work explores the practical reality of Christian conversion and the concept of being "born again" in a modern context.</p><p>Through a series of intimate case studies and testimonials, Shoemaker illustrates how faith can radically alter human character and address deep-seated personal challenges. The book captures the spiritual energy of the early 20th century, serving as both a historical record of evangelical ministry and a timeless exploration of the power of renewal. Readers interested in the history of religious movements, the psychology of religious experience, and the early spiritual roots of the twelve-step tradition will find this work to be an illuminating and inspiring resource.
