sams84's review against another edition
1.0
This seems to have a lot of positive reviews, which is great, but I just don't think it was for me. It was beautifully written and had a nice sing-song like vibe to it but I just couldn't absorb the messages as they seemed contradictory and indecisive, and a little out of date (not surprising given when it was first written). I was expecting to learn some great truths or uncover some great unknowns based on the conversations around this book, but instead I came away with very little in that regard. Maybe I didn't read it in the right environment or right frame of mind, I don't know. It just wasn't for me at this time.

This book is beautifully written and I loved some of the sermons, specifically the simpler ones. The long preaching became a bit convoluted and confusing in a way that damaged the meaning.
