Rezensionen

I did get a lot out of this, and for that reason I really enjoyed it. I would honestly suggest it to anyone, Catholic, Christian, non-Christian, agnostic. I truly did get a lot of it. I liked that everything was brought back to God -- not necessarily Jesus but God -- and that God is in psychology. I liked that.

What I didn't like about the book, and why it really only got a "Good" rating, is his viewpoints (constant harping) on the War in Iraq, War on Terror, and 9/11. I got sick of reading about it. Another thing I didn't connect with in the book is his viewpoints on the poor. To him every vocation (or so that is the impression I got) needs to help the poor(est of the poor). I do not feel I am being called to help the poor, honestly, in anyway so I don't believe that every vocation that is right and true is to help the poor. That is a separate vocation. Not every vocation is being called to help the poor.

So I liked it but those are my sticking points. Not necessarily sure I would read other works of his. I imagine he is able to find some conceivable way to work his opinion on the Iraq War, War or Terror, and 9/11 into his subject matter, regardless of if it is appropriate or not.
