I received this book the other day, and I tell you I am really pleasantly
surprised by it. A Conversation with God, if you could ask God any question what would it be?
Written by Alton Gansky.
of view.. First person. Also included is an answer from Jesus, and other
big names like Abraham, Job, Paul, John, David and Eve.
Now no one can really answer for God, but they can direct you to what God
has said about the subject.. using the bible. I like that they (the publisher,
the author and the editing team) relieves the reader of all the technological tough theology and
just wrote it like conversation. Hence the name of the book.
Do I think this is a good book for a new believer? Hmm maybe not. It's not to be
a bible replacement. Gods word is alive and needs to be read by individuals so
the Holy Spirit may use it to guide and direct us. I think this is a really neat conversation piece.
My hubby thought it was cool. I had to test some of the answers and went to my bible to look up
where they got their information, and they tell you to do this in the introduction. Did I agree with
the answers all the time? No but I didn't disagree with them either. I will say that some of the
answers don't really answer the question, because God just has not revealed everything to us,
but the author does attempt to explain just that. It's on a need to know basis, and some things
you just don't need to know.I found it such an easy read that I covered most of it in about two days. I don't I think I will be
giving this book away. I think its a book for a group discussion for sure. I received this book
from Thomas Nelson publishing and Booksneeze.com for free in agreement for blogging.
