Pagels is a novice

Revisado: 03-22-18

Pagels is a novice and bit off way more than she is qualified to chew in this book. Written from a scholarly angle, it is evident she is not versed in opaque spiritual matters.

Intriguing, worth the investment yet beware

Revisado: 12-12-17

In a meticulous and well-researched fashion, Mr. Rhodes itemizes all the clear signs, or "trends," that indicate the End of Days is either here, or about to unfold.

Many valid and incontrovertible observations are made, each with a fine case detailing the reason these conditions point to the Apocalypse. However I have this against you, Rhodes, you have left your first love and are no longer humble. You have fallen into the common trap of hard prophetic interpretations, blindly applying names to the actors of biblical prophecy, and nearly swearing on all that is holy that you can pinpoint exact time frames, persons, countries and events.

This is not to be, for a true believer is simpleminded and humble, and the more you profess to know the more your words will be held to account. For, "my brethren, be not many masters, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation," (James 3:1), and "for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid," (Isaiah 29:14).

Missler needs to decide whether he is a Christian

Revisado: 11-09-17

I think Chuck Missler needs to decide whether he is a Christian, or a Scientist. No Mr. Missler, you cannot both parade as a preacher of God and at the same time idolize science, researchers, new technology and physics the way you do. I am baffled, shocked and awed with the amount of real estate he takes up praising the scientific advance of mankind, even going into UFO conspiracy theories, while neglecting biblical literature. In truth, it is relegated to easily less than 20% of actual content.

I believe, good sir, that you are sadly mistaken if you believe reciting John 3:16 at the Gates of Eternity will fool anyone away from your idolatrous heart. I hope you think twice, I hope you repent. For it is not a man you are fooling, and truly you are dealing in shaky territory with very heavy things. How can you sit on the board of several Defense Contractor companies and claim to follow the Prince of Peace? You are trusted and respected, which is why it is duly important that you faithfully consider your current steps. Time is short.

Very creative piece...

Revisado: 08-30-17

Would you try another book from Reza Aslan and/or Reza Aslan?

Very creative piece of blasphemy. Aside from discrediting the truth and validity of the bible thrugh and through, he seems to have forgotten to talk about Jesus. Nearly three hours in, he has yet to come on the scene. Would not buy another Reza Aslan religion book.

Another great performance for David Bosco

Revisado: 05-26-17

What made the experience of listening to Dick Cheney Shot Me in the Face the most enjoyable?

I felt Tim's writing as dry slapstick comedy for the most part. It is very modern and contemporary, unabashedly gunning for the middle-class American man. Listening to it made you feel like "another one of the boys," with regard to that sub-category. At times he would dive into weightier themes that got you thinking about unfortunate characters/events from their unique perspective.

Have you listened to any of David Bosco’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

David is a class act who delivers a polished, upbeat performance. He's very good at making the characters "come to life," thereby aiding the audience in empathizing with the book's characters and ensuing unfortunate events.

Any additional comments?

Main takeaway: this book is great fun, I believe intended for light reading and fun, harmless entertainment. Anyone who listens to it and doesn't live in the US will get a very clear picture of what life is like there for the average, middle class guy. Good stuff.

Brilliant and Underestimated

Revisado: 04-26-17

What did you like best about this story?

This is a brilliant piece of writing... John Kay is an underrated genius. This book effectively throws a monkey wrench into the gears of 99% of business / self-improvement / management philosophies out there. If you truly study the material, observe it and put it to use in your own life, you will be amazed by the results. However be forewarned; the material and subject matter is extremely intellectual and advanced... not for the lazy reader simply awaiting "the next joke." Agree with comments on the narrator, the book would have been better served if he was a bit more natural in his delivery. BUT DON'T LET THAT GET IN THE WAY OF BUYING THIS BOOK!

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Forget what you THINK you know...

Selling "flow" as a highly addictive super drug

Revisado: 04-20-17

Any additional comments?

It feels like Kotler is selling "flow" as a type of healthy, highly addictive drug. The best part? You can only access this drug by (justifiably) risking your life within inches of death to get there. And if you die? Well, at least you had one last hell of a ride. He says this over the course of a 9 hour and 23 minute audiobook production. Got the feeling that since I'm not currently throwing myself off skyscrapers, I am not a good candidate for this magical super drug called "flow."

Beautifully read, wonderful message!

Revisado: 06-05-16

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

This is an excellent book to "gather 'round and listen to with the whole family." Its message is uplifting, universal and absolutely beneficial to everyone who listens to it. It is a manual that helps the reader/listener discover their dormant power to create change in the world, and all the satisfaction, financial and otherwise, such creativity offers. This book is an instant, timeless classic.
