This had some interesting bits, and the author has clearly read very widely. However, it turns into a series of GCSE-type summaries of the thought of "famous religious thinkers through the ages".
I was determined to finish all 460 pages, and did so, but it was mighty hard work.

This is a book that just repeats what we already know.
I don't see how this book can benefit anyone older than 14.
I wouldn't recommend anyone to buy this book, but it does make good reading.
However the exercises in the book are invovling and it is not lecturous, but it has a more friendly open dialogue.
If you're a young teen stressing about life, I would recommend it to you!

This is an excellent book for those who would like the basic issues set out in a way that is accessible. Yes it is not a thesis but I don't think the author intended it to be so - I have plenty of books I can go to to support his arguments in more depth and who argue both sides and look at objections in depth.
But I bought this book as an access way to these issues for young Christians or those who are searching. And that it exactly what it does.

Defy a book to read over and over and keep forever and ever and ever :)
For many years Millman's books have been among my favorites. This is a first in a Trilogy that includes Sacred Journey of the Peaceful Warrior and The Journey of Socrates. Millman himself went though an incredible story, from injury back to Olympic athlete and from those events has created a series of books to help bring out the best in other people. Any of Millman's books are great tools for personal growth.

This book is brilliant. An easy read, broken into digestible chapters, this book will give Christians lacking confidence to live more actively for God (the majority of us in truth!), the boost they need. You will breathe sigh's of relief as you realise that you don't need to be a supersonic Christian, but simply walk as you are, trusting God will do the rest if you focus on Him. Ortberg is fantastic at making you feel refreshed and encouraged, challenging where you need it, but affirming you too. This is beautifully crafted and will leave you with a burden off your shoulders and a desire to Get out the Boat and walk :)

C.S. Lewis is without doubt one of the greatest - if not the greatest - lay theologian of the 20th century. Immensely personal, his works do not fail to speak to whoever takes time to read and reflect on the great and eternal questions humans have been asking since time immemorial. Reading this book from cover to cover has been a truly spiritual journey - absolutely rewarding but difficult and challenging as well. Nowhere in his works will you find mindless zeal of the self-righteous, instead what shines from every page is a candid and life-long search for truth by a highly intelligent, highly educated and decent man not afraid of asking difficult questions about his faith and reasons. A committed Anglican himself, C.S.Lewis must be a mandatory reading for all Christians regardless ... Read More:

This is a masterpiece and is the best and most authoratative book on the end of days I have encountered to date. It's all here with historical evidence to back it all up ~ What will happen in the future, we will only have to wait and see, but this book gives a good indication ~ See for yourself!
