A Whole New World! Review by Battle Maiden

I have always been frustrated by the fact that very few of Jesus' parables made sense to me and when I heard sermons on them, they became more confusing. Michael Pearl's explanation of the differences between the Kingdom of God and the Kingdom of Heaven were like a blinding beacon through the fog. At first, the light was so bright, I couldn't look full on and had to take this book in about 5 minute increments (me, who usually reads books cover to cover with as few stops as possible). I've had to read it twice because of the years of erroneous sermons I've heard and am looking forward to another read! (Posted on 1/16/2013)

Mind Opening! Review by Battle Maiden

This book cleared up a lot of confusion I had about Jesus' teachings. Everyone I knew thought that the Kingdom of God and the Kingdom of Heaven were the same thing, which makes for trying to live out a lot of nonsense. It was so different from everything that people had been parroting at me that I had to read it in small chunks, going over the same material a number of times because the new information kept grinding into the old, faulty information. I think it may be the most mind-growing book I've read about the Bible. (Posted on 5/5/2012)
