We all need a spiritual healthcheck from time to time. These 16 devotions will help you to see where and how to grow in faith and joy.
This book will: help you to diagnose how you’re (honestly) doing in your faith; give you the “vitamins” you need—God’s ways of helping you to thrive; and point you to the one who enables you to really grow—the Holy Spirit.
Give yourself a spiritual healthcheck and ask for God's help to make you more like Christ. There's no better way to start the new year.

Everyone needs a check up every now and then and Carl gives us a terrific little spiritual health check here. It helps us see where we may have drifted and then balances that out with Biblically helpful encouragement to get back on track. Here are helpfully penetrating questions and a lovely encouragement that although there are no quick steps to a thriving Christian life, we have all we need in Jesus and the ordinary means of grace.
How are you doing spiritually? That's not an easy question to consider, but it might be the most important question each of us ought to answer. Spiritual Healthcheck is a help to Christians to evaluate our spiritual health and get a proper reading on the pulse of our spiritual hearts. This book is so helpful that I'm already thinking about ways to get all the members in our church to read it!
Carl Laferton has provided a gift to the church in encouraging believers to see how God is working and providing hope for change. Like many believers, I have often wondered if I am growing as a Christian. The daily pressures of life, coupled with my own sin, can make it difficult to see the work that God is doing. "Spiritual Healthcheck" is a needed tool designed to help believers diagnose and treat their own spiritual health. Great to read with a friend or read it on your own.
I am finding this book to be very helpful in stirring my faith afresh. It offers 16 short and easy to read chapters on your spiritual health. Ideal for individual or group study.
This slim book is packed full of probing questions and spiritual challenges. I have nearly finished and will be starting back at the beginning as soon as I do as I feel there are more layers to find.
I had ordered a book and after some time was asked to review it. I hadn’t received it and told them this, without question they said it must have got lost in the post and sent me a replacement. Great service. The book was Spiritual Checkup and I have found it to be a marvellous study resource and would recommend it to anyone.
Great resource with questions that cause you to take a second look at what’s really going on. Using with my prayer partner for Lent - focusing our prayers and support for each other. Encouraging, realistic and achievable approach.
I purchased 6 copies of this book for the leaders to re commence our Ladies breakfast and as this is now over Zoom, due to the pandemic. It is an ideal short study for each month of the year. It is helpful because it is a great devotional that focuses on our Spiritual Health! Each chapter has a different topic relevant to new believers and mature Christians.
I read a chapter a day as part of my daily quiet time at the start of 2021. It was thought provoking, helpful and forced me to reflect and respond to some of the most basic teaching of the bible. Recommended for anyone who is looking for a challenging start to the day / year.
Found it challenging. That was what I needed. Brought me back fresh to jesus and what he did for me at the cross.
We are studying the book as a home group and are finding it very challenging. We thought we were doing OK but the searchlight of the questions shows us how much further we have to go.
This little book is a really helpful resource that looks at our personal spiritual health in a fresh, inspiring and practical way. The structure lends itself to a personal devotional time or use in a small group. I found the short and to-the-point commentary really helpfully as it took familiar passages and themes but opened up a new dimension for me. It came recommended to me and I am very happy to recommend it on!
I used this last January when it was in the Explore notes and found it so helpful and practical and bought 3 copies of the book for friends when it was published. A great book to help us in our walk with God.
