When something goes wrong we are prone to ask, "What did I do to deserve this?"

We know that God disciplines all His children, but how do we recognize His discipline? And why are some people more severely chastised than others?

Dr. Lutzer points out three kinds of discipline. Educative discipline is given to strengthen us. Preventative discipline is brought into our lives to keep us from sin. And retributive discipline occurs when we are directly chastened for specific sins.

In this eBooklet, Dr. Lutzer treats the subject of God's discipline from a thorough study of Scripture and applies biblical principles to real-life experience.
