Just finished two books...reviews are forthcoming

Have you ever had an amazing weekend? I did this past weekend.

My Grandpa Wally turned 81 and my wife and I drove up to spend some time with him and take my grandpa and grandma out to lunch.  After that, we went to the beach and walked and enjoyed the ocean.

To top off Sunday evening, we stopped by a little hole-in-the-wall place and had an excellent seared Ahi Tuna meal...oh the fun.

A review of Leo Landau's Search For Wisdom: Find Peace, Love, & God will be and Robert Orfali's Death with Dignity will be posted soon.

Here's to a happy Monday...
-Steve

Relentless - Book Review

Image
Be very careful "where" you go for spiritual advice...just because an individual has sold millions of books does not mean he is careful with scriptural analysis.  I received an advanced copy of John Bevere's Relentless and was hopeful that it would contain information that would be beneficial to the Kingdom of God. I was disappointed. What I found was the same ole John Bevere I had encountered previously. Rash, prideful, and twisting scripture. If you're a John Bevere fan, I urge you to proceed with caution.  Be a Berean--search the Scriptures to see if what John is saying is true... While it might break decorum to promote another book as an introduction to a book review, if you're serious about Bible study...you might want to check out How to Read the Bible for All It's Worth by Gordon Fee and Douglas Stuart. Happy Wednesday and as always, comments welcome. -Steve Relentless: The Power You Need to Never Give Up [Hardcover] by John Bevere $19.99  ...

Review of Spiritual Junkie

Image
Books about spirituality intrigue me.  As a Christian, I will admit that I have a very strong faith and I am resolute in my beliefs.  A long time ago, I endorsed the ideology that purports: if you want to know the other camp--you should read what they do. Be careful "where" you look for spiritual advice. Opening such doors could cause you quite a bit of aggravation...after all, you never know what you might find. Happy Friday, -Steve Comments welcome. Spirit Junkie, A Radical Road to Self-Love and Miracles By Gabrielle Bernstein 288 pages, $23.00 ISBN-13: 978-0307887405 Non-fiction Review by Steven King, MBA, MEd Spirit Junkie, A Radical Road to Self-Love and Miracles is destined to be a best seller since so many impressionable people are clamoring for spiritual direction in their lives.  If anything will do, then quite possibly such people are willing to fill the void in their lives with anything that comes along.  Its author, Gabrielle Bernstein, believes s...

Review of It is Dangerous to be Right when the Government is Wrong

Image
We live in frightening times...and I'm sure you're probably sick of the political grandstanding that defines the months leading up to an election.  "You did this" and "I'll do that, if elected."  We have heard all the bologna before. A scarier reality is the amount of personal freedom we find eroding and how little of this reality makes it into the news, or even in discussions with friends.  Judge Napolitano's book should be read by those who want our country to act congruently with how it was founded. My review is included below.  Comments always welcome. Happy Friday, -Steve Available at Amazon.com It Is Dangerous to Be Right When the Government Is Wrong: The Case for Personal Freedom [Hardcover] By Andrew P.
