Customer Reviews

Nicely done.

I would describe this book as a quiet joy. Some wonderful prose and postulations regarding a different way to conceive of and commune with Jesus and the light within, that is the Christ Consciousness. Mr. Selby wrote a thoroughly enjoyable easy, but not indolent, read. This book in many ways helps clear away many of the obfuscations prevalent in main stream Christianity and to some degree the bible. Not to be truculent, but I would recommend Ethan Walkers books as a more in-depth & personal approach. Four stars on the board but, I'll proffer a cogent 3 ½.

by whatever name, Love calls & never condemns

This book is for anyone who wants a deeper connection with Loving Guidance & ready to have their own personal experience be proof enough. It is an easy read & great for anyone desiring to go beyond religious dogma of any sort. It also will not offend anyone whose connection to God is through Jesus as a way to the Infinite.
