Summary: A Contridication to the real God!
Review: As a believer, I was not fooled. Professing Christians will know this book does not line up with the Word of God. He claims there is no hell, no devil, and nothing to address the claims of Christ as God incarnate. Neale's book claims the only thing we have to fear is fear itself...(I think Roosevelt said that once!)If I were Satan, that's exactly what I would want people to believe if I were trying to decieve them. In Genesis, God tells us there is no new thing under the sun, and this book verifies that fact. Lump this with the works of self-promoters like D.Chopra and call them new-age if you will, but these are not works that help mankind understand God -- but only the foolishness of life when we do not acknowledge the real Truth. Jesus said I am THE Way, THE TRUTH, and THE Life -- and no one comes to the FATHER (GOD) but through HIM! May God Open your eyes to this TRUTH as you read this.

Summary: Simple Truths
Review: I've read this book no less than five times. Every time I get caught up in the world and it's dramas I return back to this book to "remind" me what the big pictures are. It has helped me to understand many of the nagging questions that religion could not answer. If you have found God in religion and you are happy with that then this book might not be for you. I could not find what I was looking for in religion and was bothered by all the talk of punishment and judgement. I'm not discounting religion but I am so thankful for this book. This simple little book started me a path three years ago that has helped me become a better person. That may sound cliche but it's the truth. I cannot tell you how many people have approached me asking how I maintain such a sense of peace and calm in my life. I was ready for this path and would have found it regardless but I'm giving credit where credit is due. The book is great. If it wasn't why is everybody still talking about it?

Summary: What a joke.
Review: I recently had the opportunity to read Book 1 Conversations with God and found that the author is probabloy suffering from Schizophrenia especially when he hears voices and communicates with these voices. I believe that he (the author) was going through such a trying time that he perthaps went off the deep end. However; he was/is intelligent enough to bamboozle the general public. I hope the reader/s aren't caught up in this nonsensical dialogue.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It Is What It Is!
Review: Its time we all start taking responsibility for our own lives.The book has opened my eyes to many possibilitys to my relationship with God, that were not there before.I dont think it is the answer,but then i dont think there is an answwer to any thing,only questions.God made us in his/her own image,Its time to start living life consistant with that.Dont play small

Summary: One of the most important books on religion/spirituality
Review: I came to this book feeling somewhat dubious. I'd read channeled works before, but none claiming to come right from God - and I wasn't even sure if I believed in God as an individual entity anyway. I'd also read a lot of New Age books which were weighed down in meaningless terminology and fluff.

The first thing I loved about this book was its clear language. As I read it I felt that to some degree it was reiterating messages I'd already read, but in terms which the "average person" could easily understand, not with the dense intellectualizing that made my brain ache after a few pages which I find in some books of this type.

The fact that I'd read other books which gave the same basic information on life and the way the universe works wasn't a drawback, for me. The more people who hear the message, the better, and this series presents the message in a very easy to read, very clear manner. It's easy to follow, it makes sense, and if you're not too sure about what it says, there's an easy way to test it - try it out. It doesn't ask you to take anything on faith - not even that it's dictated by God, which the author himself certainly questions enough! Ultimately, if the message is sound, who cares who the messanger is?

Of course there are many who'll find the message unsound, but then there are many skeptics, and many people who strongly follow a religion and don't like anything which questions it. If you are ardently religious, you probably won't like this book. If you're a general skeptic, you'll probably think it's trash. But if you're a seeker and a searcher, if you're someone who is an explorer of spiritual truths whether they come straight from God or from someone's higher consciousness (and is there even a difference?), this may well be the most important book you've ever read.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: You will feel your internal voice rejoices with truth!
Review: I just finished the first book. Let me tell you, it will make sense to you no matter which believe system you come from. I was raised in the Catholic believe but I visited several other believes in search for an answer. Since I was a child I understood that the "true" religion must be one that (1) Can describe in a very detailed level every human being regardless of the birthplace (2) Must know everything about human health, needs, and wants. After all, religions have existed for hundreds if not thousands of years and yet they always come with these "I do not know" dead end roads. Conversations With GOD makes sense all the way from start to finish. While reading it you can feel the message being spoken from the book and from inside you at the same time! Then is when you know this is real. For me the basic message Neale is sending us is that we are not different from him in any way, that we all can have a personal conversation with GOD too. Try it! You will re-member yourself.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: as a grain of salt
Review: Those who know do not say, those who say do not know. Those reveiws claiming that this book contains the true and ultimate answers are full of it. If you want true knowledge, study all of the religeons with an open mind.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: In good/god company
Review: I do not doubt Walsch`s sincerety, at least not in issuing the first volume. It is also OK with me to portray the inner dialogue as a conversation with God: The proof of the pudding is the eating; inspiration is inspiration, no matter what garb. But I was disappointed by the sheer superficiality and lack of inspirational insights - just the same stream of semi new age thoughts that were fresh in the seventies, but are stale and worn by now for a reader that has heard the same thoughts reformulated in the same ways so many times. Speaking to God, one enters illustrious company. It is a shock to rediscover the sayings of Jesus and Buddha and their undiminished power to shake and cut through the maze, not to speak of the amazingly fresh and contemporary words of Padmasambhava from 8th century Tibet, or the unique insights of Ramana Maharshi`s sparse words. Referring to these giants, the stale words of Walsch could have deserved 2 or 3 stars had he held them in his own name. But portending to be words from God relegates them to the 1 star category.

Summary: You are in charge of Your own destiny...
Review: You may wish to be in charge of your own destiny and skip this book. This is the 7th book review from the CORBEL Book Club.

Some comments from our group were: "It helped bring clarity to my life" "It helped with relating to others and building relationships" "Thought provoking"

Mostly it was very confusing with a lot of double talk and contradictions. The author seemed schizophrenic talking to God (and God says: sometimes God is cool? - what's that supposed to mean?) this book went against the views of Christianity that the members of our group were raised with and believe in. The end of the book was very disappointing - clearly it is the authors intent to just sell books and memberships to his "organization".

If something good could be said about this book, I guess it forced some of us to read a book that we otherwise would not have done...and it was short.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: truth in a bottle
Review: Reading this book was like opening a capped bottle. A fresh wind took over my life when I opened the book and started to read. At 20, I was becoming disillusioned with religion, it seemed dominating and fake. Conversations with God gave a realistic explanation of God and religion. Walsh asked questions that any human person would ask God if they were truthful to themself. The Book was not heretic, but rather inspirational. It provides hope for persons who fear God; it gives faith to unbelievers that God is not a distant feature of brimstone and fire. I would like to say thank you to the author. He may have never guessed that his work could be so inspirational or historical. But I believe this is a book that everyone should read...with an open mind.
