Robson Marinho writes from his heart and from his own personal walk with God. Though he refers to them as "secrets," there is nothing secretive about the practical counsel, based on Scripture, that he offers both to help readers to strengthen their own faith and to challenge them to a deeper walk with God.

In this book, Dr. Marinho explores how the secrets of the human heart shape behavior and how emotion and experience, rooted in faith, build character. Most importantly, Dr. Marinho shows his readers how God is able to use every experience in life as an opportunity for growth.

Recently, I had an opportunity to review Dr. Robson Marinho's book, "16 Secrets to Spiritual Growth." When I first began to read this book, I wondered if this was going to be another self-help book or if was it possible there were secrets that I had not seen before. I was surprised to find that I had found a unique passageway that opened to add fresh new resources and illustrations that led to spiritual growth. This book shows that there are more places to look and find spiritual growth.

Dr. Marinho provides a framework through real-life experiences that is supported by Biblical examples and concepts. As you read through each chapter, you will make discoveries that will provide you with a sense of where you are in the big picture and how to grapple with questions you may have on your spiritual journey. This book will open up "secrets" that can help you strengthen your faith walk with Jesus.
