A Powerful, Inspirational, and Thought Provoking Work! 5 out of 5 stars.
2 of 7 people found this review helpful.

This is an amazing work and I've never come across anything quite like it. The elegant prose is beautiful and the messages of inspiration and example are extremely powerful and thought provoking.

I found myself going over certain parts again and again, not because they were difficult or confusing, but because the messages were so profound that I wanted to linger on them for a time before moving on. Truly a classic work in the field of personal development, this is a "must have" addition to you success library.

In the spirit of full disclosure, I should say that I am a speaker, trainer, and author of another unique and highly valuable learning tool that can also be found here on Amazon: The WealthLoop Series Beginner's Guide to Personal Wealth Creation (Combo Audio/Data CD): Audio Seminar With Downloadable 40-Page Action Manual and Active Link Library. It is a straight-forward discussion of the art and science of personal wealth creation and should be considered by anyone serious about wanting to learn more about the right way to get started on the road to personal wealth creation and financial freedom!

Product Description 5 out of 5 stars.
8 of 8 people found this review helpful.

According to The Listener's Bible web site, the following is the product description for The Pilgrim's Progress (Listener's Collection of Classic Christian Literature):

"As I slept, I dreamed a dream."

So begins one of the most beloved books in all of history. Few books besides the Bible have been translated, printed, and read as often as The Pilgrim's Progress. John Bunyan's classic allegory of Christian, the Pilgrim, on his perilous journey to the Celestial City has touched hearts and minds for more than three hundred years-and still the demand continues. Introduce a new generation to this memorable story, filled with memorable characters- Evangelist, Charity, Hypocrisy, Goodwill, Obstinate, and Mr. Worldly Wiseman.

Each one offers a unique insight into the Christian life--its joys and trials, its opportunities and struggles. You'll discover The Pilgrim's Progress to be both challenging and entertaining.

Over the centuries countless souls have been transformed by John Bunyan's timeless and brilliant Pilgrim's Progress--in my estimation, one of the greatest works ever penned. I am thrilled that Max McLean has brought Bunyan's stirring words to life. I am confident that this unique production will captivate and encourage you. Ravi Zacharias

A Must-Read from Keller 5 out of 5 stars.
4 of 4 people found this review helpful.

I can not recommend highly enough Tim Keller's The Prodigal God, which was just published this past week. The book is both easy on the eyes at 160 pages (an easy afternoon's read) but challenging to the heart. Keller takes us back to Jesus telling the story of the Prodigal Son, but he reminds us that "prodigal" does not mean "rebellious" or "wayward" but rather lavious and "recklessly spendthrift". As such that definition fits the father in the story as much as the son. Keller, helps each of us relate to either the younger son (as those who rebel against God in outright and outward rejection of God), or to the older son (as those who rebel against God by trying to manipulate Him by our moral behavior). As he does he shakes our understanding of what it means to be lost and helps us all see how we have run away from home. While we might not consistently express the attitudes and actions of one brother or the other, Keller explains: "Are we to conclude that everyone falls into one or the other of these two categories? Yes and no. A great number of people have temperaments that predispose them to either a life of moral conformity or of self-discovery. Some, however, go back and forth, trying first one strategy and then the other in different seasons of their lives. Many have tried the moral conformity paradigm, found it crushed them, and in a dramatic turn moved into a life of self-discovery. Others are on the opposite trajectory."

Keller, thus, uses Jesus' story to help explain the culture wars we are experiencing today and to challenge each of us to examine how we approach God. His use of contemporary illustrations are remarkable, but most impressive is his helping us see the Gospel anew and know and feel the need for us to be refreshed in it continually. This book is a must read for both new and mature Christians as it does rediscover the heart of the Christian faith.

Editorial Review:

Unabridged CDs • 2 CDs, 2 hours

The Prayer of Jabez used a little-known story of the Bible to redefine success for Christians. The Prodigal God uses a famous story of the Bible to redefine nothing less than the central Christian message for believers and skeptics alike.

Editorial Review:

From the television to the Internet, print media to videos, men are constantly faced with the assault of sensual images. It is impossible to avoid such temptations…but, thankfully, not impossible to rise above them.

Shattering the perception that men are unable to control their thought lives and roving eyes, Every Man’s Battle shares the stories of dozens who have escaped the trap of sexual immorality and presents a practical, detailed plan for any man who desires sexual purity- perfect for men who have fallen in the past, those who want to remain strong today, and alll who want to overcome tempatation in the future.

“There is no more common enemy of true manhood than the diversion or the perversion of our sexual capacities. I welcome every contribution to the arsenal of resistance.”
-Jack W. Hayford, Litt.D., pastor of The Church on the Way and president of The King’s Seminary

“The vulnerable, honest, and insightful pages of this book reveal what every man must know.”
-Drs. Les and Leslie Parrott, authors of Saving Your Marriage Before It Starts

“Clear, practical principles for sexual purity…a call for courage, commitment, and self-discipline.”
-Dr. John C. Maxwell, founder of the INJOY Group

“Read with an open heart, Every Man’s Battle may save your marriage and your witness.”
-Dr. Gary Rosberg, president of America’s Family Coaches author of Guard Your Heart and The Five Love Needs of Men and Women

Includes a special section for women, designed to help them understand, empathize, and support the men they love.

I now know why this book has sold so many copies. This is a timeless book that will help you understand your place in the world. I wanted to read it for professional reasons but wish I had it long ago to help me with life in general. This is a great book for anyone. No matter where you are in your life.

Editorial Review:

When we stand before crucial thresholds in our lives," asks poet and philosopher John O'Donohue, "where can we turn for guidance and protection?" On To Bless the Space Between Us, he shares words of wisdom and encouragement to help us traverse such crossings. Covering seven universal levels-Beginnings, Desires, Thresholds, Homecomings, States of the Heart, Callings, and Beyond Endings-O'Donohue delivers with uncommon clarity and lyrical beauty a series of invocations and blessings for everyday grace and contemplation. To illuminate "pathways of presence through the geography of new worlds," he calls forth the omnipresent aid of the divine that will lead us beyond our limitations. For it is "when we are true to the call of experience," O'Donohue assures, that "we are true to God." In the tradition of his classic Anam Cara (Bantam Books 9780553505924), To Bless the Space Between Us is presented with an earthy eloquence and incomparable resonance by this master of Celtic consciousness-offering listeners an atmospheric and thought provoking collection that rekindles the passionate heart. Music by acclaimed Irish harpist Áine Minogue.

This is a dummied down version of the Five Love Languages. It works, but I wish I would have bought the complete version instead.

Heart of the Five Love Languages 2 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

This was not quite what I expected. It is an abridgement of the original Five Love Languages. "It sorta leaves ya hangin". Gives an overview of common sense, then it makes a person get a bit mad. Chapman blames a lot of the problems in relationships on women, and as people know, it takes two to be in a relationship, so where is the mans responsibility? Also, I disagree with his point that in order to make someone else happy and "fill their love tank" you must get out and do what they like to do and get out of your comfort zone. If that is how the relationship is going to be...then maybe that is not the relationship for you to be in. You can never make another person happy, they must choose to be happy on their own, otherwise you wear yourself out trying and just resent that person because they don't appreciate you. From my perspective, a relationship should be something that BOTH people are willing to work on. If someone is reading or listening to this book or any other relationship book, then koodoes to them for bettering themselves. I think that there are many other books that are much better and so much more worth the money.

Editorial Review:

We all know that the greatest commandment is to love. However, relatively few of us know how to express our love in the heart language of our family and friends. Fortunately, in The Five Love Languages Gary Chapman identifies the five primary love languages and teaches us how to use these languages to express our love.
