Reviewed by Philip Van Heusen for Readers' Favorite

The Rev. Mary D. Bruce Ph.D. has authored the impactful book The Art, Skill & Spirit of Follow-Through to show that follow-through works. Follow-through is listening to the inner voice of the Holy Spirit urging you to complete a task. These tasks are given by the Spirit for you to complete in your divinely appointed journey. God never calls you to a mission that He does not equip you to achieve and therefore no excuse is acceptable. You may be afraid, feel incapable, or lack resources, but those vanish when you look at the unlimited power of following God as He leads you through the Spirit. The Holy Spirit will prompt you and then prompt you again and again until you follow through on your task. Mary gives many examples and methods to overcome stagnation and procrastination. Using her Spiritual Model will take you from idea to completion.

Does Rev. Mary D. Bruce Ph.D. asks whether you have been ignoring a prompting from the Holy Spirit. Is there something you used to think you should do but never got around to it? If you continue to have a thought surface and then resurface, you may be feeling the unction of the Holy Spirit. God often prompts us to do something we think we can’t do. God’s plans for our lives are much bigger than any plans we can come up with. We want to take action, but negativity takes control. To overcome this, we need to learn how to recruit a support team (cheerleaders, if you would) that will help hold us accountable and spur us on to victory. Satan and his host will tell you that you can’t do it. Stop listening to his lies and start listening to the Holy Spirit within you. Enlist the encouragement of spiritual friends who will remind you that all things are possible in Christ. Go for the gold with The Art, Skill & Spirit of Follow-Through!
