One important thing missing from the book is a proper understanding of the fall, sin, and human inability. We address Comer's claims that the problems the world is facing today could be solved if Christians would become apprentices of Jesus and compare it to Charles Finney's Pelagian moral government theory.
We also discuss Dallas Willard and his teaching on spiritual disciplines, as cited in Comer's book.
This is a critique of Practicing the Way by John Mark Comer, WaterBrook, 2024.
