5.0 out of 5 stars Are you a God Chaser?, January 13, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Extreme God Chasers (Paperback)

This book is great for anyone seeking the face of God and "not just His hands." It will inspire you to seek out God's manifest presence, and discover what He is doing NOW, not just where He's been. Be a "dead man walking" for God - dead to everything that isn't of Him, because that is when He can draw near to you. You might think you've felt God's presence, but was it His MANIFEST presence? Was His presence SO strong, that your flesh couldn't stand it? Was it so strong that the unsaved stumbled in, saying, "There's something here; I don't know what it is ... but I've GOT TO HAVE IT!" Tenney's book has inspired me to seek God in all His holiness, whatever the cost. It's an incredible book, that I would recommend to anyone (teenager OR adult) wishing to change the world around them for Christ, and become a God Chaser.

1.0 out of 5 stars AVOID AT ALL COSTS, January 20, 2005

someone (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Extreme God Chasers (Paperback)

A friend loaned me this book and I looked at it here and there. I sat down one night to really read more of it, convinced that it would bring me closer to God. This book left me disturbed. Also, I was baffled by Tenney's twisted portrayal of the story of Mary Magdalene encountering the risen Christ. Investigation found me articles outlining the disturbing errors in Tenney's interpretation.

Please DO NOT READ THIS BOOK. Instead read your Bible (which Tenney, by the way, refers to as "old love letters" and the "old, moldy pages of what God has done"). If you don't believe me, pull out a Bible and compare Tenney's teachings. This book could really confuse and disturb. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.
