This is a book that kept getting put on the shelf, but I am so glad I finally got a chance to read and review it. Better late than never, I always say!
This is a heavy book, and it is meant to be digested slowly. This first reading was so overwhelming that I plan to keep this around and digest it in small pieces. And it shouldn’t surprise us that this is a deep book. After all, this is from the guy who read the World Book encyclopedia for fun as a child! (Not kidding–check it out!) I would recommend this book to believers who truly want to go deeper in their relationship with God.
I was sent a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. I was not financially compensated, and all opinions are 100 percent mine.
