Book Description

December 27, 2005
This gem of a book presents God as a positive life force that, when tapped, can send our lives spinning in an exciting new direction. It explains how spiritual "experiments" work, and provides concrete instructions for using these principles to improve one's life. Ten spiritual concepts are introduced, with a suggested 48-hour experiment to prove each one. Some examples of these principles are: 1) There's a power and force in the universe that can heal; 2) Your thoughts create your reality; and 3) By directing your mind, you can create more abundance, joy, and love in your life. Written in a conversational, contemporary voice, God Doesn't Have Bad Hair Days will appeal to the spiritual believer who's a fan of such bestsellers as The Prayer of Jabez and Simple Abundance, as well as to the spiritually curious who seek fulfillment outside traditional Christian denominations. The spiritual skeptic, too, will be drawn to this attractive book and its cheeky, no-nonsense tone.

More About the Author

Pam Grout is a hopeless romantic who still believes the world is a beautiful place, that people are noble and that anything is possible.

For a living (and she always wonders why people think that's such an important question), she writes books and articles for such magazines as People, Cooking Light and Travel & Leisure. She also enjoys writing bedtime stories for her daughter, but that's more about making a life than a living. She's keenly aware there's a huge difference.

In making a life, she has traveled to all the world's continents, learned 59 ways to make a fort out of sofa cushions, perfected a mean tennis forehand and volunteered at a women's prison and free health clinic.

She lives in Lawrence, Kansas with her daughter, Tasman. Check out her sometimes updated website at www.pamgrout.com

5.0 out of 5 stars What the world needs now...., January 11, 2006
This review is from: God Doesn't Have Bad Hair Days (Hardcover)
I had a publisher's proof of this beautiful little book before the real thing was out and I drank it in like a tall lemonade on a hot day. I keep highlighting and writing things in the margins like "Yes!" This is a truly glorious book: in-your-face and young and fun, yet wise in a very deep and satisfying way. Pam Grout doesn't pull any punches: you may agree with her God-doesn't-belong-to-any-particular-religion take on things or you may not, but I can't believe anyone could read this book and not feel surer that there's a positive purpose to all this. That we're loved. That we have important work to do. And that if God Doesn't Have Bad Hair Days, maybe our own bad hair days (and bad work days, bad money days, bad guy days, etc.) aren't so awful after all.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Spirituality for Everyone, January 9, 2006
This review is from: God Doesn't Have Bad Hair Days (Hardcover)
You don't need to be turning thirty-five and have your boyfriend dump you for a twenty-something, bleached-blonde law student like in the first line of Pam Grout's "God Doesn't Have Bad Hair Days" to learn a valuable lesson from the book. What you do need is the desire to love, be loved, and find peace and happiness in your life--not just your afterlife, but your current life. Pam walks you through ten simple exercises, each taking less than forty-eight hours, that will show you that not only is the God force (call it what you will, but she'll call it "Cosmo K" or sometimes "The Dude") attainable, but also all the love and beauty it has to offer is actually yours for the taking.

Reading this book is like getting advice from a good friend who has a wonderful and quirky outlook on life. No matter your spiritual beliefs or upbringing, there's a precious message anchored in these pages and once you embrace it, you'll see your life start to change in ways you've only dreamed about.

5.0 out of 5 stars 10 Easy Steps to God, January 4, 2006
This review is from: God Doesn't Have Bad Hair Days (Hardcover)
"Talk about making it simple. Pam Grout has taken this obtuse mystery we call God and broken it down into 10 easy steps. But watch out, the God in this book is nothing like your mother's oldsmobile. This God is fun, exciting and guaranteed to take your life on a wild, spine-tingling roller coaster ride. And, as Pam says, it's open, free and available to anyone with the nerve to get on board."
