Lord shows us how easilly we have been duped into wrong thinking about who we really are as Christians. We are eagles who were created to soar in life. Instead, we have been taught that we are just turkeys, never experiencing the fulness that was intended for us.

In a very simple yet profound way, Peter Lord does much to heal wounds in souls burdened by the excesssive demands of conformity to man made rules and regulations. The book encourages us to realize that we are sons and heirs with the Master Jesus Christ. What a wonderful little book. When i finished reading it, I did indeed begin to feel my spirit souring. Thank you Peter

This is one of the 10 best books I have ever read! The story and the test and the explaination show the reader why they are frustrated with the typical Church experience and why they need to have an "eagle" life. Hearing God and Soul Care by the same author are good follow ons to this.

Great analogy of young Christians and the doctrine they are given. But God prevails in this book as he does for some many who seek the real Christian Life.

What a great book! Peter Lord tells us that everything we do is important to God - whether it's working on a job, cleaning house or caring for our children, etc. All of these things God has called us to do. And we are to soar with the "eagles"!

If you are reading my review, then this book is a MUST for you!! Purchase this book, I promise you will not be disappointed...you will find out if you are a Turkey or an Eagle...Thanks Dr. Lord.

Peter Lord has written an enjoyable fictitious book about living for Christ. Its very simple to read, I read it in approximately three hours.

The story follows that two small eaglets are abandoned by their parents, and are unfortunately raised by Turkeys. Thus they must learn the ways of the Turkeys.

The basic message presented is that as believers, we need to live according to what God has made us. We don't need to work at being righteous, we are the righteousness of God. Sinning isn't something we do habitually because God has given us His Holy Spirit who shows us when we sin, and helps us to change.

Reading this book was pleasant. The message is one we all need, and also need reminding of. Although I question some of the comparisons made with Eagles/Turkeys and believers, ultimately the story was interesting.
