Summary: An Amazing Life Changer!
Review: I finally have a logical way to explain everything and every question I had about life and death, and God. Before this I was a border-agnostic. What was I thinking. A very powerful series and one that I have been recommending to everyone who will listen!

I am in the middle of book two and can't wait till I read book three.

Summary: Mixed review
Review: I was very touched by the first half of Conversations with God, and I would give this first half five stars. I truly felt connection and truth--God speaking to my heart. I especially loved the soothing tones of Ellen Burstyn's voice as God. Gosh, would I love to hear that voice the next time I need a shoulder to cry on--or someone to laugh with! (Auntie Ellen!) Most of the first half of Conversations with God primarily dealt with basic questions and truths, I think in a direct and beautiful way. Unfortunately, the second half brought me back to Earth, and I would chose to give it only a star or two. First of all, God sounded rather contemptuous of humans. I found this a bit depressing(!) Also, I was painfully aware of Neale Donald Walsch's ego in the way of any message. Who the heck cares "exactly how many" lives NDW has lived? He also obviously feels guilty about "taking money for doing God's work." I wished he would have dealt with that problem in private. It made me think he's a bit of a wienie. Oh, and the part about alcohol not being a substance that should be ingested by humans. If that were so, why are our bodies able to metabolize ethyl alcohol? What about alcohol dehydrogenase? It's a sure bet Neale Donald Walsch has never tasted a 1989 Chateau Latour--surely proof of the existence of God! Still, I think this a worthwhile, though flawed, work.

Summary: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
Review: My husband and I have listened to each of the six tapes (Book 1) a minimum of 15 times. Looking over the reviews I appreciate all the 10's but looked for and enjoyed all the 1+'s - just for the laughs. So I rated the book 1 so you would find my comments if you were also looking for a laugh. We have a 20 year old brain injured son now three years post accident. He is still non-verbal and totally dependent - in a nursing home. CWG has allowed us to look at life in such a different way and given us lots to think about. And we already have plenty. The bottom line, however, is that you can call anything good or bad. Anything. But the next minute that "description" can change. And if you're not ready, you'll be turned upside down. There are so many "good" things that have happened since our son's accident that could NEVER have happened otherwise. Yep, there are lots of difficulties too. It all comes together though. And depending on how you view it, you CAN change your life today - no matter who you are and what you type of life you are living. It's just plain ole love. Just send it out. Keep on remembering and just send it out. The fun has just begun. Peace, harmony, laughter and love to you all.

Summary: Overall, it is a very interesting book.
Review: Neale Donald Wlash writes a letter to God containing questions which are a result of his frustration. To his surprise, God answers, and thus we have Conversations With God, Book One. The book is written in a question - answer format, where Neale is asking the questions and God is supplying the answers. The questions are typical life questions that everyone has wanted to ask God at some point. However, many of the answers are surprising. The book offers interesting insight in a variety of areas, including religion and sin. I like the point the book implies about relationships between people and God. We all have the capability to conversate with God if we would just slow down and recognize what God is saying to us in our thoughts, life experiences, and through others. One troubling aspect of the book is that the author seems to be writing from a certain religious standpoint, but does not identify which religion. The closest religious expression which matches the thoughts of the author is New-Age spirituality. Overall, the book is very interesting and can help a person awaken to the potential of a having close relationship with God. Yet, the book tends to reveal more about the character of Neale Donald Walsh than the character of God.

Summary: This book reflects many of my own inner thoughts.
Review: The book speaks to individuals of all faiths. God speaks to all of us, but often we don't realize that he is the voice we hear. This book inspires us to listen more often to our own inner thoughts, even when they are in conflict with traditional teachings. It helps one to expand their thought process about life, religion, faith and relationships with God, yourself and others. Many of the concepts are in conflict with my beliefs, but I have now learned to look at things from a different point of view after reading the book. I would recommend this book to individuals with an open mind, that can accept other ideas that may be different from their own

Summary: Conversations with God- book 1 volume 1
Review: These tapes -Book 1 volume 1 - changed my life. I listen to these tapes over and over again. I have always had many questions about life and why life? These tapes have explained so much to me that I wish they were a requirement before one could graduate from high school or college. These tapes are THAT good! I thank Neale Walsch for giving me the oppurtunity to listen to these tapes. If you only listen to one set of tapes in your life make these be them, they will make you THINK. A must for life, a must for living.
