Rating: Summary: Try again Review: I am a lay youth leader, and I picked this book as a possible resource. I wish books for "adults" were this clear and insightful! Pastor Bill outlines what spirituality is in lovely poetic language. He leads us on a journey of knowing who we really are. Then he leads us to find ways to express our deeper purpose in God. Easy to read with well thought out exercises. He always finds a great metaphor to clarify his thoughts. I can't recommend it enough to teenagers and adults alike.

Rating: Summary: Try again Review: This book was required reading for a religion class at my school. It had a good intent and a fairly bright outlook on life however as a teen i found it patronizing. You will be presented with an idea and it will be defended to some success however in the next chapter it will very often contradict it's own ideas as if they had never been stated. It's outlook on life is flowery like you would tell a child but lacks the real world as it's defece. This is a book for troubled youth, for someone overcoming an assult and needs something overly simplistic and nice on the rebound. My belief is that the world doesn't fit in the box presented by this book. I also didn't like the little bells and whistles through this book it's like a web sight with to many sponsers, anamated pictures with little comments through the entire book which do nothing but distract the reader. Under no circumstances should this be required reading. Also i have never seen so many lists outside of death row in texas.
Rating: Summary: What an awsome book! Review: This is a wonderful, wonderful, book! I attend a Presbyterian Church (U.S.A), and large divisions have been created in my church as a result of the conservative members condemming spirituality, saying that it is "too new age." But reading this book, written by a Presbyterian minister, convinced me that the denomination is not as chaotic as my church has made it appear to be! Even if you're not Presbyterian, or even Christian, I strongly recommend this book. Almost everything that Grimbol said, I agreed with completely! In fact, I was dissappointed when the book was over! I wanted to say, "Come on, say more wonderful things!" If you're unsure about buying this book, I strongly recommend it - you won't be dissappointed!
