What IF 5 out of 5 stars.
10 of 13 people found this review helpful.

It seems to me that the people who have given this book a less than desireable review are the ones who are steeped heavily into the brainwashed religious diatribes of what religions have been pushing down their throats as the truth. What they forget is that the bible was written and re written and edited so many times over and over, that one can only believe that the end result is nothing more than what those religions want you to believe....which of course is for their own agenda.

After being a student of many books along these lines, it only comes to say that these people are "young souls" and are NOT ready for the next step. So you can only go by what they say, with that in mind. Eventually in some life time they will awaken.

This book is one of the best ones I have read, other than Sheppard Hoodwin's "The Journey of Your Soul." These two books together answer and explain any question that you may ever have. I belong to no organized religion, nor ever will be as I find that the "rules" that have been made up in them are just not believable at all.

Open your mind and really look inside these books. You will find a wealth of information beyond anything that you could ever hope for. A world so totally amazing it will boggle your mind.

Editorial Review:

Incredible 4 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

This book is an incredible dialogue with the creator of the Universe that speaks truth. Must read.

Editorial Review:

This is a life-altering book. It contains New Revelations. It provides the tools with which to pull ourselves out of despair, lifting the whole human race to a new level of experience, to a new understanding of life itself, to a new expression of its grandest vision.

Neale Donald Walsch believes that the human race has reached a Time of Choosing. Our options are being placed before us by the tide of events -- and by those whoa re creating them. We can either move forward, building together at last a new world of peace and harmony based on new beliefs about God and Life, or move backward, separately and continuously reconstructing the old world of conflict and discord.

In The New Revelations, bestselling author Walsch offers possible and powerful answers to the questions facing the world, and urges us to open our hearts and minds to what may be one of the most important spiritual statements of our time.

A little bit boring 2 out of 5 stars.
2 of 3 people found this review helpful.

I read this book several years ago, and although I generally love to read and love Christian fiction, this was one book I had a hard time getting through. It really didn't have much of a plot, and the book dragged on and on. It doesn't seem very realistic; Delancey and MacKenzie have their professional lives set by the time they're twenty. Delancey and MacKenzie didn't seem to be very well developed characters to me. But this is the first book I read by Lori Wick, so I would be willing to read something else by her.

Editorial Review:

All dressed up in a fresh new cover, Pretense, the bestselling novel from Lori Wick is ready for a brand new generation of readers.

Marrell, a happily married army wife, adores her family, but throughout her life she’s felt something missing. When she discovers that the void is spiritual, she is afraid to tell her husband. Will he understand that he cannot meet all of her needs, and that she cannot meet all of his?

Covering the lives of Marrell and her two daughters, Mackenzie and Delancey, from the 1970s to the 1990s, Pretense is a character–rich novel written from Lori’s heart that shows the patient love of God and the promise of His forgiveness for all who seek Him.

Highly recommended 5 out of 5 stars.
15 of 17 people found this review helpful.

There is no question that Ken Wilber is a brilliant person who, although it is "his" vision, has a great vision for humanity. His intentions for the most part are very sincere and his ability to integrate such vast amounts of literature is unsurpassed. Most readers will agree that this is Wilber's most comprehensive work to date. If you have ample knowledge in the field of philosophy, spirituality, psychology, sociology, biology, physics etc, this book is certainly worth reading and the ideas put forth in this book are well worth contemplating. The only thing I didn't like too much about this book is that his writing is too one-sided. There is a place for these kinds of people who push for change with strong and convincing arguments. They serve as catalysts for social change in history. However, he seems so caught up in convincing the readers of his worldview that it actually takes away from his story. When people are truly confident in their views they usually are not so motivated to convince others to agree with them. The fact that other people may disagree or may not understand is also understandable to them. Despite this, I believe this book is a one of the best attempts to integrate many topics into one framework. Another absolutely fabulous book that does this on a small scale mostly in the field of psychology is Toru Sato's "Ever-Transcending Spirit". In contrast to "Sex, Ecology and Spirituality" it is actually readable for almost anyone without any expert background knowledge. In some ways, it goes beyond Wilber in that Wilber separates the four quadrants and Sato tries to integrate the four quadrants by using everyday experiences that relate to these quadrants and explaining how they go together. It is also an excellent book so I'd highly recommend it too! If you want to understand Wilber though, I found this to be the most satisfying.

Editorial Review:

In this tour de force of scholarship and vision, Ken Wilber traces the course of evolution from matter to life to mind and describes the common patterns that evolution takes in all three of these domains. From the emergence of mind, he traces the evolution of human consciousness through its major stages of growth and development. He particularly focuses on modernity and postmodernity: what they mean; how they impact gender issues, psychotherapy, ecological concerns, and various liberation movements; and how the modern and postmodern world conceive of Spirit. This second edition features forty pages of new material, new diagrams, and extensively revised notes.

Editorial Review:

Neale Donald Walsch grew up fearing God, especially after his mother, a neighborhood mystic, was caught reading cards for a friend. His mother was "trafficking with the devil," according to Walsch's deeply religious aunt, and as a result, "God will send her straight to hell."

That was the start of a relationship born of "fearship," as Walsch calls it. In Friendship with God, Walsh speaks to the struggles he's had learning to see God as a true friend rather than a punishing judge. Like his immensely popular Conversations with God series, Friendship with God is written mostly in dialogue format, modeling how anyone can converse with God. What makes the book especially accessible is Walsh's humble voice that gently addresses most people's confusion and doubts. For example, Walsh talks about feeling squeamish that God knows the shameful secrets of his life. In response, God points out that Walsh has shared his dark secrets with friends and lovers. So why not share these truths with God, who has never judged or punished him, and never will? These types of tender and reassuring conversations give readers the courage to begin their own private dialogues with the divine. --Gail Hudson

Bravo Ms. Wick 4 out of 5 stars.
2 of 2 people found this review helpful.

I have long waited for Ms. Wick to write a novel in which the main characters did not get saved. Many people struggle with this decision. It is rarely an easy decision for someone who has not been raised in the faith. Sometimes people take a while, and sometimes it doesn't happen. Understanding the reasons that someone who is seeking stops, or does not find are important. While I have learned much about how to be a good witness to someone who has some of the "easy" questions about believing, it is difficult for me to find sources who tell you how to answer the hard questions. I was a little disapointed in how it occured in the second novella, but I was really impressed that she could leave the book with the characters as non beleivers. So often we have to do this in our daily lives, that it was sometimes frustrating to see it happen so easily for the people in the books.

Further, this series is about a town, while there are "main characters" this book highlights how people are deeply affected by thier environment and past experiences. While this may mean that we get to know the main characters a little less, if you take a moment to enjoy the connections between the characters, and see how a town was once more than just a bunch of people who happened to live in a given area, you can really enjoy this book.

This book is not like Ms. Wick's other books. I do not think it worse, or better, but definitly different. If you expect classic Wick, you will be dissapointed, but if you are ready for a new perspective and a community approach, you can enjoy this book.

I am also fascinated by the indignation over drunk/memory. Oddly enough, Alcohol does effect everyone differently, as do all drugs, including caffeine. Having actually met people who don't remember what happened while they were drinking, despite the fact that they don't look/act overly drunk, I can believe this possibility. I could also detail the physiology of being drunk (what happens in your body/mind), but I'll let you figure out that one. Just know that this is a completely plausible situation.

Editorial Review:

This first book in the Tucker Mills Trilogy from beloved author Lori Wick follows Jace Randall as he leaves his childhood home to help his Uncle Woody Randall run the saw mill in Token Creek. Jace diligently focuses on work until he meets the visiting niece of local storekeepers. Jace pursues her until she finally agrees to attend a picnic with him and take a chance.

But before the relationship has a strong foundation, the couple separates because of gossip fueled by Jace’s sister. Later, when she admits her wrongdoing and shares her testimony of a new faith, the couple must decide whether to try again. Will the sister’s example of faith and transformation be enough to restore broken dreams?

Rewards Matters 5 out of 5 stars.
2 of 5 people found this review helpful.

Rewards Matter ... FOREVER. Forever is not just 100 years in this life, but many hundred years in eternity FOREVER! Read to understand what Bruce Wilkerson shares in A Life God Rewards about what you do today does matter FOREVER. Read, study, listen, & apply now then receive rewards FOREVER.

Catchy Title Doesn't Measure Up 1 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

I have finished checking out "A Life God Rewards". There are several issues. I will summarize all the feedback I received....



According to "A Life God Rewards" you are not working for your salvation but for how big your mansion will be in heaven. It is just another form of legalism that Paul fought in his day. It is an invention of law not a work of God's grace.



One reader gave an example of his two sisters. One was more interested in getting "rewards" from her parents, and the other could care less, as she was only there to love her parents. Which one of these sisters found favor? He made a point that the "Jones" do not live in the Kingdom of Heaven, so that you won't have the keep up with them.



True Christian focus is love, and the joy of being in His presence; not getting His "presents". We are not out to serve ourselves but to help others come to the same saving faith and future we have in the Savior. Our help is motivated by love not rewards. We "so love" because God "so loved". Judas's green eyed, out-to-help-himself attitude about Jesus' mission led him to betray the Savior for a foolish reward. He cared about the purse strings... JN 12:6 He did not say this because he cared about the poor but because he was a thief; as keeper of the money bag, he used to help himself to what was put into it.



The Bible teaches to "love your neighbor as yourself" not "love your neighbor to reward yourself". The Bible teaches we "ought to lay down our lives for our brothers" not for our benefit. A life God rewards fosters a spirit of greed instead of a spirit of love and giving, and knowing God's grace. If refocuses on the selfish instead of selfless; a merit system about what I can achieve to better my eternity instead of how many people I can reach for Christ.



Satan encourages us to think "who is the greatest" when God's word says "we have all fallen short". When the Twelve argued about this point Jesus said MK 9:35... "If anyone wants to be first, he must be the very last, and the servant of all."



We must remember that our Lord and God alone is worthy to receive glory and honor and power and worship, and the "crowns" we possess will be laid before His throne because He gave us our very being in first place... REV 4:9-11 Paul shows us that these crowns are our glory and joy in the presence of our Lord Jesus. They are the very brothers and sisters whom we shared the gospel, witnessed, and had played part in leading to the Lord! Can you really think of anything more wonderful then to have someone in heaven come up to you and thank you for planting a seed that helped them down the path to salvation!?!? 1TH 2:19 For what is our hope, our joy, or the crown in which we will glory in the presence of our Lord Jesus when he comes? Is it not you? 20 Indeed, you are our glory and joy. (PHP 4:1)... The Philippians were Paul's present joy as he received favorable reports of their spiritual growth, and their presence with Christ at his return would be his future crown when Christ comes to reward his servants.





God alone is worthy because all our righteous acts are like filthy rags...
ISA 64:6 All of us have become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags; we all shrivel up like a leaf, and like the wind our sins sweep us away.


God alone is worthy because every inclination of our heart is evil from childhood....
GE 8:20 Then Noah built an altar to the LORD and, taking some of all the clean animals and clean birds, he sacrificed burnt offerings on it. 21 The LORD smelled the pleasing aroma and said in his heart: "Never again will I curse the ground because of man, even though every inclination of his heart is evil from childhood.



Those lulled into a rewards mentality must consider the parable of the laborers. (MT 20:9-15) Those hired at the end of the day received the same pay as those who started at the beginning of the day. Jesus has the right to do what He wants, it is not unfair, "or are you envious because God is so generous?" (MT 20:15).



The "Johnny-come-lately" thief on the cross will not be in a lesser place in heaven... He will be with Jesus! LK 23:43 Jesus answered him, "I tell you the truth, today you will be with me in paradise." His gratitude for inheriting what he did not deserve will be the same gratitude of all the saints for what they did not deserve.



The opportunity to reign with Christ was given through Christ's death not our works. The Lamb has made the ransomed into a "kingdom" and made them "priests". Christians "will reign on the earth" because they have been given "kingly authority" through his death. REV 5:9-10 And they sang a new song: "You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals, because you were slain, and with your blood you purchased men for God from every tribe and language and people and nation. REV 5:10 You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God, and they will reign on the earth."



The point of these next verses is to set your heart attitude on things above that will last forever and not on the earth that will fade away. It is not a rewards / works doctrine but rather the only smart thing to focus on are things that will last..

PHP 1:21-24 For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain. 22 If I am to go on living in the body, this will mean fruitful labor for me. Yet what shall I choose? I do not know! 23 I am torn between the two: I desire to depart and be with Christ, which is better by far; 24 but it is more necessary for you that I remain in the body.

MT 6:19 "Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

COL 3:1 Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God. 2 Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. 3 For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.


His Grace expressed in kindness through all eternity to "all" the saints... not some more than others! We were created to do good works God prepared in advance! EPH 2:7 in order that in the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus. 8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith--and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God-- 9 not by works, so that no one can boast. 10 For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

Someone should write a book on prayer or submission and see how popular these titles will be in todays society. A Life God Rewards is nothing more than a catchy title with a twisted theme. God commands us to be noble and test everything with the Scriptures to see if it is true.. Acts 17:11 Now the Bereans were of more noble character than the Thessalonians, for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true.



This one does not check out.

Editorial Review:

In this book, you're going to discover that God's son Jesus revealed a direct link between what you do today and what you will experience after you die. Astoundingly, the majority of spiritual seekers around the world -- including millions who follow Jesus -- seem to have missed what He said. Could you be one? If so, your picture of the future is missing about a billion stars. Author Bruce Wilkinson shows you what Jesus said about God's plan to reward you in eternity for what you do for Him today. What you'll discover will unlock the mystery of God's power, plan and will for your life. And you'll begin to live with the unshakable certainty that what you do today matters ... forever!

Editorial Review:

At a time when the fate of the world seems increasingly uncertain, The Translucent Revolution provides a compelling and convincing argument that radical positive change is taking place throughout our global society, resulting in increasing numbers of people from diverse and divergent backgrounds who are awakening to a state Ardagh defines as "translucent." In the process, they are becoming part of a potentially critical mass of people capable of triggering a worldaround awakening of deeper purpose, joy, compassion, self-fulfillment, and service to others.

Ardagh studied this "translucent revolution" for more than a decade, after years of spiritual seeking that culminated in his own awakening of his true inner state of being after famed spiritual teacher H.W. L. Poonja asked him, "Who is the one trying to be free? Who are you really?" What he subsequently discovered was that experiencing his inner awakening was far easier than living and maintaining it, but in the years since, he discovered ways of doing so, finding in the process that many others around the globe are now doing so as well.

As part of his research for The Translucent Revolution, Ardagh interviewed others from all walks of life he are awakening to similar experiences, including Ram Dass, Eckhart Tolle, Jean Houston, and Neale Donald Walsch. In all, he interviewed over 170 people, compiling 250 tapes and 3,000 pages of transcripts, the essence of which he distilled into this book. After opening with an examination of what "translucence" is and how it can be lived after the radical awakening that leads to it, Ardagh then explores how translucence can positively transform individuals in terms of their self-identity, personal actions, feelings, relationships, sexual partnering, parenting, and art. From there he examines the affects of translucence in collective society in terms of education, business, health care, religion, and global sense of community. Throughout the book, he provides readers with many experiential exercises they can do, both in the form of "Try It Yourself" exhortations and gentler "Nudges" that can be performed individually and with a partner. The end result is a doorway to a transformational journey that literally leaps off the written page.--Larry Trivieri

Good at points, bad at points. 4 out of 5 stars.
4 of 4 people found this review helpful.

The first point was very unexpected. I noticed that some events that happened in Book 1 also occurred in Book 2. When I think of a series, I think it is a continuous story. But, I will see what the other books in this series have to offer. There are also some slow times in this book, especially in Pine Grove. But, they are critical to the book because they let you in on feelings of Rebecca and Travis. I also didn't care for the ending too much. I was expecting something dramatic. The ending left several points open - will they be covered in the next book or will the next book have some of the same special events like Book 2 did after Book 1? Overall, it was a good book with a fairly happy ending.

Editorial Review:

When Travis and Rebecca marry, rumors quickly spread that he has done so only for her dying father’s ranch. Confused and convinced that Travis can never truly love her, Rebecca strikes out on her own. She disappears to make a new life for herself in a town far away, but her friends there are few, and life is hard.

When desperate circumstances drive Rebecca home to Travis, she can see the change in the man she left behind. In her absence, he has grown from a rough–hewn cowboy to a confident rancher.

Still, her wounded heart is hesitant. Is she more afraid to love—or to be loved?

A great surprise! 5 out of 5 stars.
3 of 3 people found this review helpful.

I didn't expect to like this book...it looked like traditional Christian fiction, very romantic and sweet, but usually too saccrine for my tastes. But it was definitely worth the time. Although it is very "sweet," it has great characters! The only complaint I have is that you barely got any time with Sunny and Brandon actually together as a couple. But they are referred to in the next two books in the series so you get a little bit.

Editorial Review:

The first in the newly repackaged Kensington Chronicles series, The Hawk and the Jewel  sweeps readers from the tapestried halls of Victorian England to the alabaster courts of Arabia.

Everyone thought little Sunny had perished with Lady Gallagher in storm–tossed seas off the Arabian coast, but the beautiful toddler had been found, taken to the palace of Darhabar, and raised as the ruler’s own child. Now the emir, Ahmad Khan, is sending her home, and Sunny’s uncertain, new life is completely in God’s hands.

This classic series, which has sold more than 375,000 copies, has a fresh, new look sure to please Lori Wick’s longtime fans and readers just discovering the treasure of a great story.
