5.0 out of 5 stars Encouragement to Listen to God, December 8, 2004

By

(VINE VOICE)    (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   

This review is from: How To Listen To God (Hardcover)

Contrary to an earlier review, Dr. Stanley does not profess to be the only speaker for Jesus Christ, instead, he encourages the reader to listen to Jesus Christ.

The chapter's contents are as follows:

1. Is God Still Talking?

2. God's Goal in Communicating

3. How God Gets Our Attention

4. Identifying the Voice of God

5. Factors That Determine How God Communicates

6. Are You Listening?

7. Sitting Before the Lord

8. Your Spiritual Mind Set

9. Hindrances to Hearing

10. Listening and Obeying

11. The Life That Listens - A Well-Built Life

Personally, I'd rather listen to the Holy Spirit any day - He is infinitely wiser than any human being, including Deepak Chopra!

Read and be encouraged to listen to the Holy Spirit - God wants a relationship with you more than you do with Him and He will speak if you only listen! The book serves as an excellent guide to point the reader to Jesus Christ.

Highly recommended!

This review is from: How To Listen To God (Hardcover)

This book should be the second best book in your library. Charles Stanley teaches us the most valuable lessons any believer would want to know and that is how to listen to God. I was on vacation when I read this book, I couldn't put it down.

5.0 out of 5 stars Yes, this is a Christian interpretation...., August 18, 2003

By 

Kelli Sincock (Simi Valley, California United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: How To Listen To God (Hardcover)

Before I came to know the wonderous glory of our God (Yahweh) and his son Jesus Christ (Yahshua), I would have seen this book as narrow minded and harsh. But each time God makes his presence known to me I am one step closer to understanding the glory that awaits those who are brave enough to be loyal Him and No Other. This book is so loving in its careful interpretation of biblical passages relating specifically to our personal relationship with God and Christ. I truly feel that Mr Stanley was divinely touched in its creation. For anyone who desires the "TRUE" path I HIGHLY recommend this book! Blessings to all. Thank you Charles for your hard work and good ear!
