Astounding! October 24, 2008 This is a book you should read, whether or not you have any religious beliefs. Yes, it's comical to think that the author would be having a 'conversation with God', and I was sceptical too, when I was first introduced to the book. However, even if you don't believe in a 'God' of any kind, or believe that Neale Donald Walsch has had a conversation with such a God, what the book says makes a lot of sense anyway.
And those of us who were brought up to believe in a vengeful God who judges and condems us, will find it a relief to realise that this simply isn't the case.
I was sceptical - now I'm convinced!
Tools for being creative. August 23, 2008 Powerful message and insight into the role of human beings and how we can improve our creative potential in daily life. The author argues to have received the messages in this book through 'automatic writing' experiment. 'Automatic writing' is well known method for clearing the mind from daily distractions and allowing it to 'open up' to empowering ideas (See Surrealism as well as the poet WB Yeats).
The book is an experiment: If you get powerful feelings while reading it, then it works for you. Many people evidence it worked for them. I agree.
Brilliant! July 2, 2008 Its a pity the highest rating one can give a book on Amazon is 5 stars, I would have given this book more. Written in simple language, easy to read, very engaging, though-provoking and insightful. Its certainly given me a new perception of life and the the world...I've gone and bought books 2 and 3 and cant wait to read them too!
Threatening? May 13, 2008 This book has been inspiring for me in many ways. The first of which is that I do have the answers to my life... I just have to look, hear, listen.. When you actually think about it, this book did not really tell me anything I did not know.. It did not reveal any Grand Truths, or simple rules on how to live life. It invokes reflection, introspection, and invites you to your own truth, whatever that may be. I find it interesting, and not surprising at all, that most of those with negative comments are Christians!!! Why feel so threatened?
Insightful Masterpiece... A MUST READ April 20, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Great questions with expansive answers! This is a life changer, but the continued books 2 & 3 are only interesting at some parts & repetitions on the other! God has mentioned he's not the all Universal God or that you have to follow GODS advice, but that is insignificant, for IT preaches Wisdom that OBVIOUSLYWILL MAKE YOUR LIFE GRANDER,HAPPIER & MORE MEANINGFUL
A MUST READ LOVE
