Heavy on Science...But then Didn't God Create it!

Revisado: 08-30-22

In the debate of faith verses science this book looks at God as the creator of the way the natural world works. Isn't science just man trying to figure out how it all works?

I feel there is a place for science in faith and this book tries to find that balance. This is for the thinking Christian. The one who can look at the beauty of the nature and the cosmos and realize there is and has been worlds that the eyes of man will never see. And wonder WHY? I would say and I think Hugh Ross would also say, Because our God loves beauty and created beauty for His pleasure.

We have yet to understand all the natural world has to offer on this planet or how it all works together for life to exists. But yet, it does. While trying to understand and learn we can and should thank the God of creation and also learn of Him.

Heavy on the Science...No Pratical Application

Revisado: 12-27-19

Looks like Dr. Leaf knows the subject well but the concepts were repeated many times throughout. Once the book came to the 21 day plan, instead of giving steps and practical application for each step, the scientific principles were again presented. Which for an academic might have been useful but for me I will need to go over this several times and reference other material in order to grasp the steps.

Tying the concepts to scripture was great but in some cases the scripture was pulled out of context or not quoted completely. Which for me took away from the validity for the overall work. There again I will need to reference other books to fully understand the link.

I feel Dr. Leaf would have been better served to have a co-writer who could add real life examples and applications to this work to make it less academic and more practical. I am surprised the publisher did not recommend this to her.

Overall an important step for anyone who is interested in how the brain works in relation to thoughts and memories.

Jimmy Moore you need some NarrationTrainig NOW

Revisado: 10-15-19

After listening to Dr. Fung’s other book “The Obesity Code” I thought this would be a great follow up. The information was great and helpful but listening to “Jimmy” read this, not narrate, but read it VERY Poorly it was tough to stick with it. I can’t believe he has read other books ( mostly his own ). If you want the information buy the print version. This one would be a huge turn off.

Must Love Basketball...

Revisado: 07-27-19

Sean Pratt here again shows why he’s a great narrator.

The information could have been delivered in 1 hour. But Tim S. Grover wrote it in just under 7. Because basketball is his thing and training athletes too a high level, especially basketball stars. Basketball is not my jam. The skills are relevant to other careers but the “Relentless” basketball examples and name dropping really turned me off. I did finish the book but the message was almost lost, in my opinion.

A Very Dangerous Book.

Revisado: 04-29-19

I have been playing with the idea of taking my side hustle and going full time. This book was very encouraging and the plan is forming. For that aspect I liked the book very much. There are many examples of folks who have gone for it.

The problem is each story was a different narrator, many of which sounded like they were first time audio book narrators. 44 stories 44 narrators many are REALLY BAD. The content was the only saving grace for me. Maybe these folks are doing this as a side gig, most will need lots more training before going full time as narrator.

Physician Heal Thy Self

Revisado: 04-03-19

While the information was good. Ryan you should have set aside Your Ego and got a proper audio book narrator. You could have done the epilog and the podcast you included at the end. You voicing the entire book was a big Foo-pa.

So that's why we celebrate that way!

Revisado: 01-08-19

R.C. Sproul has always been one of my favorite Bible teachers. Bob Souer is an outstanding narrator. The best and the best. If your interested in reformation church history or Martin Luther. Then get this book and listen to it. You will listen again.

Recording SO BAD, Ten Minites in I Had to Give Up.

Revisado: 12-11-18

Most of my listening is during my commute, in the car. Most books are clear and well recorded. Not this one. With the volume turned all the up I still couldn't make out most of what she was saying and it sounded like she was standing in a metal can recording into a laptop microphone.

Both the freebees I chose this month were bad. You get what you pay for, I guess.

I Didn't Know He Was Into That.

Revisado: 12-11-18

Mr. Arkin is a well respected actor and because of this I chose this book without even checking the description or any reviews. What a mistake. It seems Mr. Arkin is in to Eastern religions. If had known that I would not have chosen this as one of my free books this month.

You get what you pay for, I guess.

Audio Books Were Desigened for this One

Revisado: 05-25-18

Just a fun little mystery story. Charters not overly developed. Just an enjoyable listen during my 3 hour daily commute. Cris does a great job on this narration.
