This book is stamped with the God-imparted authority of someone who has looked into the face of teeming humanity at its most basic level and yet has retained the heart of a child.

This is unique and rare teaching . . . a classic in the making.

About the Author
Dr. K.P. Yohannan has been crisscrossing the globe for the last 40 years, challenging the body of Christ to discipleship. His call to a radical lifestyle with an all-out commitment to Jesus has left its impact on nearly every continent. To the Church caught up by the tidal waves of compromise and self-preservation, Yohannan's life message is a fresh word to this generation and yet as timeless as the scriptural mandate itself.
Born in India, Dr. Yohannan, at the age of 16, responded to the Lord's call to serve Him in North India. In 1974, he came to the United States, where he received his theological training and pastored a church for four years.
Stirred for the countless millions in Asia still waiting to learn of Christ's love for them, Yohannan resigned his pastorate, and he and his wife, Gisela, started what is known today as Gospel for Asia. The ministry supports thousands of national workers and vibrant congregations throughout South Asia, and Gospel for Asia's Bridge of Hope program is rescuing tens of thousands of children from the generational curses of poverty and hopelessness.
Ministering hope and practical help to the people of South Asia, Dr. Yohannan's radio program, Spiritual Journey, reaches more than a billion people in 113 languages. Additionally, his Road to Reality radio program airs weekly on more than 900 radio stations in the United States, Canada, Europe, Australia and New Zealand.
Dr. Yohannan is a prolific writer with more than 200 books published in Asia and 9 in the United States. His landmark book,Revolution in World Missions, has literally changed the course of missions history in our generation.

Response to the "No, Just No" review - This is an Extremely Valuable Book!
By C. Sakwitz
I strongly disagree with the review that said because "unilateral" submission creates hierarchy and can lead to abuse of authority, it is therefore wrong and unbiblical. Turning the other cheek can also lead to abuse, yet Jesus still commands us to do it. We are not responsible for the end result of our obedience. Yes, we are commanded to submit one to another, but we don't enforce the other side of the equation. The Bible is clear on submitting to the authorities God had placed in our lives. The "No, Just No" reviewer states that Bro. K.P. is "utterly wrong about the identity of a man made hierarchy of authority in the world, the workplace, and especially the church and the home." Really? What about Romans 13:1-2: "Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves." And Hebrews 13:17 - "Obey your leaders and submit to their authority. They keep watch over you as men who must give an account. Obey them so that their work will be a joy, not a burden, for that would be of no advantage to you."
Yes, mutual submission is the way of a follower of Christ, but that does not eradicate the reality of God-given, human leadership. Does anyone reading this have a boss? Been in the armed forces? Have any laws of the land they are responsible to obey or there will be negative consequences? We are not living in the Garden of Eden or Heaven. In the space in between those two perfect realities, we have God-ordained human leadership because of the fallen nature of man. And through it, God teaches us many valuable lessons.
The Biblical equality adherents have many good things to say, and this is not about refuting them, and I sure know I don't have all the answers either. But please, don't miss out on the heart of this much-needed book because of side issues (i.e., head covering). The heart of what Bro. K.P. Yohannan has to say here is vital, convicting, and accurate. We live in a society that prizes self-centered individualism, but the way of the Cross is humility, sacrifice, obedience, and yes, submission. I was amazed at the amount of self-will and the rebellious attitudes that were revealed as I prayed my way through the pages of this book and I thank God for bringing it across my path and for using it to conform me more closely to the image of Jesus. Read it if you dare. Those who want to go deeper will embrace the challenge and the call to die to self that Christ may live through them.

I am very glad I read this book
By Steve
Touching Godliness was a book that I could not put down. When I finished it, I read again everything that I had highlighted. I sensed that the Lord was speaking to me through this book and leading me into a deeper relationship with Him. Other than the Bible itself, this book ranks among the top ten books that have influenced my life. It is probably because K. P. Yohannen has taken the words of God from the Bible along with the life experiences that God has used to call him into a close and vital walk with the Lord. He repeats the biblical truth that we have heard many times before - that the best life possible is a life that submits to Jesus as our Lord - and motivated me to desire to live that way more often than I ever had before. I think that this is because the Lord was speaking to me through His servants, K. P. Yohannen and the people that he referenced from the Bible and from his life.
The Lord used this book to help me see that we all can easily worship independence and dislike submission to anyone, including God. When I do that I end up submitting to the devil and rebelling against God. I miss out the joy and peace that I desire, damage my relationship with God, and jeopardize my eternity. I finished the book with a strong passion to please the Lord who gives Himself so completely for me
K. P. Yohannen's teaching that we need to submit to delegated authorities was very challenging to me. When he had me consider an authority figure - at work, in the government, in my family - asking me to do something that I didn't want to do and to imagine that God was standing behind that authority, he got my attention. Now instead of wanting to resist that authority, I want to see how God wants to use them in my Christian growth. Do I need to humbly change or do I need to humbly and respectfully speak the truth in love to them?
I am grateful that Touching Godliness touched both my head and heart in order to inspire me to submit to our Lord Jesus Christ more in my daily life. Through the Study Guide questions God was inviting me personally to live each moment to please Him by obeying His will and in this way to enjoy more closeness to Him. I have been recommending this book to friends and I recommend it to you.

Mixes feelings--good topic, but somewhat wrong focus
By Debbie
I find this author's books interesting but also somewhat confusing. He grew up in India, so his underlying "what is right" cultural presuppositions are different than an American's even though he has lived in America for many years. I assume English was not his primary language when growing up, which might account for the sometimes unusual ways he uses certain words. It might also explain why he sometimes seems to contradict what he said earlier in the book rather than trying to weave together a "balanced view" in the same section.
His books make me think through why I believe what I believe. However, I think a number of his arguments in this book were based more on his cultural assumptions than on what is actually found in Scripture. I agree that submission is an important theme of the Bible and deserves to be studied, but I felt his focus was subtly off in his continued emphasis on submitting to _human_ authority as being the way to "touch godliness."
He goes back to the Garden of Eden and says that Eve's rebellion was asking herself "Is this good?" rather than blindly doing what God commanded. I disagree: her rebellion was not the question but deciding she knew better than God what was good and then doing things her way rather than God's way. Ultimately, it's about submitting to God in what we do and using His standards to judge what is right and wrong. Submitting to human authority is often the "side effect" of submitting to God. I just don't see anywhere in the Bible that it's the goal in itself.
While I agree that the Bible teaches that we shouldn't tear other people down and that pride is problem, the author implies that even having a private disagreement with someone in authority (like his older brother or a leader of an organization he once worked for) is profoundly sinful. He implies that we should treat all authorities with equal submission whether a prophet appointed directly by God or an evil dictator. He says you should only leave a situation where someone abuses his authority if you just can't bear it any more, and it's better to stay in that situation if possible. He did briefly mention that we shouldn't break God's commands to follow human commands, but he says we need to be really careful since they might not be violating God's desires even when we think they are.
I felt like he would have us worship authority (the concept) from the way he talked about unquestioning obedience to human authorities as being so...sanctifying. Even in his examples, he appeared to primarily repent of his defiance of authority, not from his wrong attitudes. I think the focus should be the other way around--repenting from the wrong attitudes that led to an argument, critical comment, or other rebellion.
He did mention that our attitude toward authority is the important thing rather than mere outward obedience. Yet then he went on to list ways to submit to authority like saying "sir" or not sitting in "the father's chair." I'm confused: he just said that even outward obedience can be done with an inner rebellious attitude. And I'm not sure how loving and gracious it is to insist that his culture's sign of respect (not sitting in "the fathers chair") is more important than accepting his hosts sign of respect toward him (in offering him the best chair).
Obviously, I have mixed feelings about this book. If you read it, let him challenge you but compare it to what is in the whole Bible rather than simply accepting everything he says.
