5.0 out of 5 stars Practical Wisdom To Be Applied, August 8, 2005

By 

Dr. W. G. Covington, Jr. (Edinboro, Pennsylvania) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   

This review is from: The Seven Secrets: Unlocking Genuine Greatness (Hardcover)

Pastor Hagee presents a total of 7 principles with 7 subcategories under each for a total of 49 ideas to be applied in a daily context leading symbolically to a "year of jubilee." The significance of such a year is that debts are eliminated and there is a level field so that the rich do not continue to get richer at the expense of those in debt.

Written in a conversational style similar to his delivery from the pulpit, this is an easy read. He uses humor to make a serious point throughout the book. For any Christian who has read motivational books from the perspective of the Bible, these "secrets" are already known, but a gifted communicator like Pastor Hagee keeps it interesting.

4.0 out of 5 stars Mostly Good, January 13, 2006

By 

Stephanie Williams (Richmond, VA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Seven Secrets: Unlocking Genuine Greatness (Hardcover)

Good and bad, but mostly good. Overall, I enjoyed his book, but I didn't like the fact that there were some political opinions expressed, that I believe most people didn't need to hear. It is a Christian book, not a book on politics, right? Aside from that, there was much wisdom in this book. I like when he talks about God putting his hand to hear, as he listens to your prayer request etc. Nice cover too. When it's all said and done, this is a book worth reading.
