What reading level is The Spirit of a Disciple book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The beauty was wholly gone ; all color, all proportion and vast- ness of the original scene was lost; only a hair- line, a mere circular form in a field of black. So against the world's ignorance and dark despair Jesus spreads the spiritual arch of a living hope, quivering with the sensitive colors of love, of joy, of peace, of gentleness, of good- ness, of faith, and of self-control. A Pharisee seizes his camera, attempts to photograph the radiant light of the gospel, the eternal glory of Jesu...s Christ, and what does he get? A mere form, a hairline against a sea of black! In his own vast self-delusion, he becomes convinced that his little self-made form is a fitting repre- sentation of the beauty and vastness of the orig- inal. A child can see the Pharisee's blunder. But not he who would rather be called Rabbi than behold the Shekinah of God!
But are we much better? What folly has led us to formulate intellectual sophistries into dog- mas, which we apologize for by asking men to "believe according to the measure of their under- standing of them?" The Pharisees are not the world's only formalists.
