I find myself going back and starting over. It is very thought provoking for me as a Christian. About as close to would be humanly possible to get an inside view of God's perspective. I am loving reading it. It helps us to understand that God is loving and how he sees our potential as His creations. Creations that He loves.
I really enjoyed this uplifting, thought inspiring book! It inspires me to try to live up to whatever God has in mind for me, and to strive to always keep his love foremost in my heart. He does love us so, and I know that whatever strife I may have in my life, He is with me at all times, leading me in the right direction. Great work, Jim!
The Michael's Letters: Heaven's answer to Screwtape was a quick, easy, yet impacting book to read. It was provoking and gave me pause to consider my own relationship with God and where I am at in my own journey. It stimulates one to consider their own daily activities as well as more global issues of the day. As the title indicates this delightfully brief work is a contrasting replication of C.S.Lewis' classic piece The Screwtape Letters. Unlike Lewis' work where the effort is to detract from God, Peschke, the author, has the characters intervening toward helping the main character Mark find his way to the "final discovery of Our Father." One of the most fascinating aspects of this book was the interweaving of current day cultural issues within the story line. Regrets, if any, are that it seemed abrupt in its closure and at times lacking in depth. Nevertheless it is definitely a worthwhile read.
