Synopsis
The digital edition of all books may be viewed on our website before purchase. 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.

Présentation de l'éditeur
James Russell Miller (1840 – 1912) was a popular Christian author, Editorial Superintendent of the Presbyterian Board of Publication, and pastor of several churches in Pennsylvania and Illinois. The Beauty of Self Control is a helpful devotional by J. R. Miller. Miller excels as a writer on of Christian life. "A temper under control, a voice cheerful with hope, and a countenance bright with kindness are Invaluable possessions to any man or woman." Perfect self-control," he says, "is ideal life. A man is kingly when he has complete mastery of his temper, his feelings, his appetites; when he can be quiet under injury and wrong; when he can stand amid temptations and not yield to them. Not only is self-control strong, it is also beautiful. Anger is not beautiful. Ungoverned temper is not lovely. Rage is demonic. But a spirit calm, strong, and unflustered, amid storms of feeling and all manner of disturbing emotions, is sublime in Its beauty."
