Well-known American Christian writer J. R. Miller may have passed away more than a century ago but his literary and pastoral legacy is such that he continues to live on, not only through his books but also through his Facebook page - of his quotable quotes, that is. The former Pennsylvanian pastor released The Beauty of Self-Control in the hopes that his fellow church members and friends may continually be helped and encouraged by his spiritual knowledge, experience, and wisdom. This 1911 publication tackles a topic that remains highly relevant today. Rev. Miller counsels that "self-control is self-mastery" and that "the strong man is he whose whole being is subject to him." Through this basic message, the author reveals his own "secrets" to living an exemplary life as he was and remains a popular and well-admired figure in the Christian world. The former editorial superintended of the Presbyterian Board of Publication is able to convey his message with sincerity, warmth, wisdom, and charity. He does not take a lecturing tone - rather, he speaks with humble authority borne from his own life experiences and sincere desire to help. This work is classic spiritual reading that remains in accord with these modern times and is recommended for all who seek of ways to be king of oneself, regardless of denomination.
