Rating: Summary: God has the ultimate of timing Review: An amazing experience you really don't want to miss. I've listened to the whole set of tapes (18 in all, I believe) at least four times now, and some of the individual tapes over and over. I can't convey to you how much this book means to me. The voices of Ellen Burstyn and Ed Asner bring the "God" dialogues to life. And Walsch is one of the best at reading his own work. If ever there was a book on philosophy that you should take a look at, it's book one. At least listen to the definition of reality. When you get to book two, keep an open mind. The political stuff is a bit weird, but there are some gems of philosophy to think about in there. And when you get to book three, it can be -- well, life-changing. There aren't enough stars to rate this series. Wow!.

Rating: Summary: This is a great self improvement book. Review: As I read this book, I realized that it really didn't make a difference whether this book came from God or the author came up with the ideas. These ideas are some great ideas for all of us to live by. If everyone in the world practiced some of these ideas, we wouldn't be in the mess we're in. Donald Walsh put these ideas into an easy to understand dialogue that just makes sense. Before reading this dialogue, I had many questions about the bible that the bible has never answered. Many of those questions were answered for me in the book, Conversations with God. I read all 3 books and it was truly inspiring. My life changed for the better because of Donald Walsh's writings. What could be better than that?
Rating: Summary: Beware of this misleading book, warned from my friends email Review: Beware of "Conversations with God" books Conversations with God Dr. James Dobson talked about this book twice this week. It is devastating and parents and Christian schools need to be aware of this. Do pass it on to your pastor/church/e-mail addressees. Parents Beware very disturbing information. Please read. Parents, Grand parents, Aunts, Uncles, Please pay special attention not only to the what your kids watch on TV and in movie theaters and the music they listen to but we must also be alert regarding the books they read... Two particular books, Conversations with God and Conversations with God for Teens, written by Neil D Walsh. sound harmless enough by their titles alone. These books have been on the New York Times best sellers list for a number of weeks; these publications makes truth of the statement "Don't judge a book by its cover/title". The author purports to answer various questions from kids using the "voice of God" However, the "answers" that he gives are not biblically-based and go against the very infallible word of God. For instance (and I paraphrase), when a girl asks the question "why am I a lesbian?" His answer is that she was born that way because of genetics (just as you were born right-handed, with blue eyes, etc.). Then, he tells her to go out and "celebrate" her differences. Another girls poses the question "I am living with my boyfriend. My parents say that I should marry him because I am living in sin. Should I marry him?" His reply is "Who are you sinning against? Not me, because you have done nothing wrong. Another question asks about God's forgiveness of sin. His reply - I do not forgive anyone because there is nothing to forgive. There is no such thing as right or wrong and that is what I have been trying to tell everyone; do not judge people. People have chosen to judge one another and this is wrong because the rule is "judge not lest ye be judged". And the list goes on. Not only are these books the false doctrine of devils, but in some instances even quote (in error) the Word of God. . These books (and others like it) are being sold to school children (The Scholastic Book Club) and we need to be aware of what is being fed to our children. Our Children. Our children are under attack. So I pray that you be sober and vigilant about teaching your kids the Word of God and guarding their exposure to worldly mediums, because our adversary, the devil, roams about as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour (1 Peter 5:8). And how many of us know that lions usually hunt for the slowest, and weakest and YOUNGEST OF ITS PREY? Pass this on to every believer you know. God BLESS!
Rating: Summary: God answers man's most troubling questions. Review: Conversations With God, Book One is the personal expose of the author, Neale Donald Walsch, who after having suffered disappointment upon disappointment in all areas of his life writes an angry letter to God composed of questions, and to his surprise receives an answer. In the course of the conversation Neale poses probing questions dealing with the issues of money, personal relationships, religion, guilt, fear - life as we know it. Some, if not all of the questions asked have troubled each one of us at one point or another. The answers are simple, eye-opening, and replete with humor and honesty. Most importantly the answers are not just relevant to the author, but to every member of the human race. Following the guidelines given in this book can cause a global shift, creating a world devoid of fear, and resplendent in peace, love, and sheer joy - the world and type of existence that God has intended for us all along. Reading Conversations With God, Book One is an, inspiring, moving, life changing experience.
Rating: Summary: PLEASE, DON'T BE FOOLED BY THIS "god"! Review: Don't waste you hard earned money! This book is utter nonsense written to swindle and mislead the weak-minded. The "god" of this book is simply THE RHETORIC OF EASTERN MYSTICISM, which is ironic since that particular 'god' is an impersonal force that could not communicate with anyone. The whole concept of this book is as idiotic as saying you could have a conversation with electricity. The oxymoron of 'ABSOLUTE RELATIVISM' is strongly preached throughout the book. There is no separation of right and wrong or good and evil. THE AUTHOR EXPECTS US TO PARK OUR BRAINS IN NEUTRAL and accept that the most wicked mass murders, serial rapists, and hate breathing racists are only 'bad' because we 'think' they are bad, not because they really are evil. This 'god' would have us believe that there is no difference between a Mother Teresa and an Adolph Hitler. In an ever increasing age of moral relativism, which is a large reason for much of the current financial market woes, HELLO, it never ceases to amaze me the depths to which publishing companies will stoop to print any trash that can make a buck for them. STAY AWAY FROM THIS BOOK, AS IT WON'T TELL YOU A THING ABOUT THE TRUE, PERSONAL CREATOR WHO LOVES YOU!

Rating: Summary: Let's look at history Review: Essentially, this is perfectly right -- almost. It's not that it's so wrong that it's hated nor is it so right that it is Truth. It is almost true, but not quite. If anyone would pay attention, people have tried this sort of thing before, ie. the Mormons. And they slit your neck if you leave now. They come in the name of Christ, they call Him "Lord, Lord"; yet they don't do what He said. God has already answered all these questions; He did a long time ago in a Hebrew book called the Bible. Maybe you should take a look at that..
Rating: Summary: Gods will not mine Review: I felt like this book was written for me. It was all i needed to know at the time. I realized that following Gods will was not done without courage and belief. I fell almost reborn it sounds remarkable but it is true. I came up with an excerise to help me remember Gods will and i remind myself everyday. Your in a room tied to a chair and a person comes in with a gun and holds it to your head and ask you one question,which you can only answer yes or no. Do you believe in God? Something to think about. Passages from the book that relates to this; "Mine is always your highest thought, your clearest word,your grandest feeling. Anything less is from another source"God Bless!
