"This book is powerful. It speaks in understandable terms to one of the most critical issues of our day—the dignity and worth of man—and equips the believer in the living God with magnificent insights and answers for a world desperately yearning for meaning." --Charles Colson
"Here the biblical doctrines of man and creation stand at the head of a most practical and wide-ranging description of the modern person. . . . The 'holistic' nature of biblical truth shines through in every chapter . . . this book is important for all Christians." --Paul Gardner

Softcover/Paperback. Condition: Fair. This work encourages the search for value, dignity, respect and self-worth. The emptiness felt by people cannot be relieved by a new car or a better job. It can only be filled by understanding that each human life is far from meaningless. The author applies biblical perpectives to the question of human desire for worth and recognition, looking specifically at what can be done to improve matters in various areas of life: in marriage, at home, at school, at work, in church, hospital and prison - and underlines the benefits to be gained from affirming the personal worth of each other. The author also wrote "Johnny Come Home", "Chosen By God", "One Holy Passion", "Right and Wrong", "Who is Jesus", "Surprised By Suffering", "The Mystery of the Holy Spirit" and "The Glory of Christ".
