Bob Miller spent twenty-one years traveling across North America and interviewing people from all walks of life about their conversations with God. He presents a cross-section of those conversations... This description may be from another edition of this product.
There are advantages of being a fulltime pastor for forty-three years. Then there are the disadvantages. I try as best I can not to dwell on the disadvantages. But the one that did bother me the most, was not being able to answer the questions of children. Adults seldom ask really hard to answer questions, like, "What is God’s favorite color?" or "Are their toys in heaven?" or "Why is everything that is fun to do a sin?" I remember this one well, "Why did God choose the Jews instead of us?" Forty-three years I have been talking about God, only to learn that I knew very little about Him. This book is The Spirit at work. A Minister who has not read this book is unlearned regardless of their education.
The concept of God, seemed a little far fetched.

A friend knowing my feelings about God, sent me this book. Be it a real or an imaginary God in this book, it is a God I can believe in. It feels good not hating television evangelist. It was the first time anyone had laid it out so clearly.
An easy, thought-provoking read ... something for everyone.

Its easy to read this book's short conversations at odd moments throughout the day. Thats how I began ... but the book pulled me in and I had to sit down and finished it.The thing that sticks out most is how divergent each conversation is. At times I was amused, other times I thought the answers were highly ambiguous (perhaps I wasn't ready for these?) Sometimes I was filled with compasion and hope, and at other times I had a sense of foreboding or doom.Whew! ... it makes you think. I will be purchasing several copies to give away as gifts.
Outstanding!

"In all that I read (over 300 different people's prayers and answers), what surprised me most was the lack of theology or creed in the answers. There is nothing which should offend anyone of any religion, sect, or denomination. On the contrary, anyone who doesn't find spiritual enlightenment in Conversations With God by Bob Miller, will not find it anywhere." Joseph Buxton - Safe Harbor
Wow!
