5.0 out of 5 stars A life-changing experience!, January 12, 1999

This review is from: Conversations with God, Book 1 Guidebook: An Uncommon Dialogue (Paperback)

Having read CWG book 1 three times and book 2 once, I spent the last nine months "walking the talk" by reading and putting into my experience the worksheets and assignments from the CWG guidebook. The effects this has had on my life have been very profound and life-changing. Reading material is one thing; believing is another; experiencing is what life is all about. I would recommend reading CWG book 1 through once before attempting the guidebook, only because there is such a wealth of information, one time through isn't enough. I cannot recommend the guidebook highly enough...to anyone ready and willing to begin experiencing the life we all truly desire. This isn't about religion, as such, at least not in a traditional or fundamentalist way. This is about the journey of life we all take, the tools that are there before us if we will only awaken our awareness long enough to see and use them. Do this guidebook and get ready for the life you always knew you desired to reveal itself. It may be a roller coaster ride for you, thrilling and exciting to say the least. In the end you will exclaim "Wow!"...let's do that again.

5.0 out of 5 stars "Seek and ye shall find...Ask and it shall be given...Wow!!", December 23, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Conversations with God, Book 1 Guidebook: An Uncommon Dialogue (Paperback)

Imagine...a true and personal conversation with God sans the conventional mediums we've come to associate with communicating with God (organized religions, faiths, etc.) The contents were and are "life giving" and cosmically refreshing!! I've read the first two books and am now on page 160+ of the current and final volume (#III)...I've studied in formal theologian settings, taught and have ministered the Word of God...but never have I been so "inspired" about my relationship with God, than by the dialogue dipicted in these journals!! I am excited about life and ALL that it may yield...good and/or bad. When I lost my 9 year old son to brain cancer a year ago...I thought that ALL of my faith, religious studying, prayers and ecumenical affiliations would more than "secure" my son's recovery and healing from cancer...not so. Death had the final say and I was mentally and spiritually "mortified". Of course, MANY questions were poised toward the heavens for resolution to my disillusionment and loss. I QUIETLY PRAYED from WITHIN for ANSWERS to our son's struggle and ultimate "death". God DID respond to ALL MY SECRET inquiries in these journals. I thank God for His discourse with Neale, it was contemporary, it was relevant, it was personal, it was direct and relational...I couldn't ask for anything more. Thank you God for continuing to REVEAL YOURSELF TO MANKIND IN WHATEVER FASHION THAT EXPOSES YOUR WILL...WHICH IS TO LOVE US UNTO THE REALIZATION OF WHOSE AND WHO WE ARE. Jesus NEVER preached "institutional traditionalism" or "religion", he ONLY related to us ABOUT his relationship with God and how WE TOO CAN HAVE THE SAME. Jesus was the living MODEL & EXPRESSION of GOD'S Love...all we need do is follow the message of LOVE. Now the "sting" of death is truly hallow. Yes, I still miss my son, but now I can honor his passing as a triumph of the creative power of God, instead of a failing tragedy wrought on at the hands of a disease. I would highly recommend this material for ANYONE who is SERIOUS about "being" all that God has purposed for our lives...I'll read it 20 years from now and it's content & context will be quite RELEVANT! A definite MUST READ for ALL mankind...

5.0 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT BOOKS......makes alot os sense!, June 18, 1999

By

This review is from: Conversations with God, Book 1 Guidebook: An Uncommon Dialogue (Paperback)

These books are excellent...whether or not they are really conversations with God or not, they explain so much about how our universe works in a way that actually makes sense! I feel this is a more accurate view of what our forgiving, loving God is really like; not an enitity to be feared as conventional religion would have us believe!
