Deborah

This book taught me a new appreciation for the mother of Jesus

Revisado: 06-02-24

This book was written by a Catholic Bible scholar who had to defend his Catholic beliefs in regard to Mary to a Baptist minister. It taught me so much about why we as Catholics have such high regard for the mother of Jesus.

Citations of Scripture.

The author spoke from experience in his own life and those he counseled. He combined his professional experience and education with Catholicism to explain how healing takes place.

Great read with a wonderful twist.

I’ve been around Diesel engines all of my life. I never thought I be so wrapped up in a story about the inventor. Who knew? Apparently no one until Doug Brunt started digging.

Who doesn’t love Dolly?

Revisado: 12-25-22

Dolly gives so much insight into what makes her tick. She’s a simple girl, but there’s a whole lot of substance behind how she thinks, works, lives and loves.

Enough already!!!!!!!!!

I'll admit that I am not into pop culture. I saw his car ad and it sparked some interest. This book is very similar to Hillbilly elegy, except it is missing the part where you learn that he is elevated beyond that culture. He never dismisses the lesson of don't get caught lying, cheating, or stealing. So am I to accept that if you are not caught you've done nothing wrong? As slick as he is, it doesn't impress me. The whole book left a bad taste in my mouth. He's just the kind of guy who'd run for governor, and win!

Christ’s early life

Revisado: 06-19-20

This book fills in the great emotion spaces in Christ’s first 30 years. The author does so based on extensive research on the times and the small pieces conveyed in scripture. It makes Jesus early life come alive. I have listened to the audio book three times as it gives so much life.

A must read for every person

Revisado: 08-08-18

This is a remarkable true story of how a family responded to the worst experiences of WWII with remarkable faith. They learned that God was present and at work in the worst places if He is asked and shared. Nothing that we encounter in life today is as bad as what this woman encountered and not only survived but went on to bring the healing power of God. You will be humbled and hopeful.

Worst narration ever!

Revisado: 10-20-17

This is probably a very good book, and that is why I keep coming back to it. I could get my money back, but I would like to listen to it. It is, no doubt, the worst narration ever. Would someone please prevent authors from recording their own books? Someone desperately needs to re-record this.

This is John's best book yet!

Revisado: 04-06-16

If you enjoy learning about Temple Grandin, John Robison's story is equally compelling. After being introduced to John in 2011 at IMFAR, I read his first two books. When Raising Cubby came out, I devoured that one too. This is his best book yet. If you have Asperger's or autism, or if you care about people who do, this book is for you. John does a great job of describing his life and experience with autism. He also tackles the job of explaining how scientists are using their knowledge gained from years of research to develop promising treatments that will eventually be available to those of us outside research institutions.
Read the book, treatments are within site. The next steps will include training the masses. It cannot come too soon!

I was very disapointed by the end of the book.

Revisado: 04-18-13

If you're looking for a love story instead of a spiritual journey, you will probably be satisfied. Though it was well written and funny I thought this book would end with the author finding the meaning of life. It didn't, and I was left disappointed.
