From the Back Cover

"Strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man."--Ephesians 3:16
"I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me." --Galatians 2:20

Jesus, the Good Shepherd, grants eternal life to His sheep--not just a life in the future but one that starts presently, the life we now live in the flesh. But how are we to understand the supernatural gift of this life, and what does it look like as it accomplishes its good work within us? In The Inner Life, Octavius Winslow examines what it means for believers to have the spiritual power of Christ living in them. After looking at how the Spirit of Christ lives in His disciples, Winslow carefully explains how our spiritual life is assaulted, struggles, and regains strength as we travel a difficult but blessed road to our heavenly rest.
