Customer Reviews

Anti God reviewers trying to stop this book's success

Recently, there have been several reviews written on this book that are clearly biased against God and Dan Patrick. If you read these reviews they clearly have a negative slant towards Mr. Patrick, who also host a radio program in Houston. These reviews do not give a fair and objective review of the book on it's merits. If you look at the earlier reviews of this book, most give it 4 or 5 stars. The book has been very successful because it clearly tells the reader why they must read God's Word to discover His plan for their life. Dan answers the excuses people give for not reading the Bible, the major benefits of reading the Bible and gives a review of all 66 books, main characters and concepts of the Bible. He also shares interviews he has had with celebrities, sports stars and politicians (including our current President) about their faith. This is a great book for everyone no matter where they are in their spiritual journey.

A Great Read and a Great Gift

This is a wonderful book that is easy to read, and you can tell it is written from the heart. I am strong in my Christian faith, and yet this book gave me more information on how to respond to skeptics and the lazy and how to better spread the word to friends and family. I recommend this book to anyone who may need that extra push to become a committed Christian again in his or her life or for the first time. I also recommend this book as a gift for family and close friends. This is a book that I will be giving to many young adults who are headed off to college. 5 stars!

Breakout Christian Book of the Summer (2003)

"A book that is destined to introduce God's Word to a newgeneration, while reinvigorating the faith of the rest of us."I immediately bought this book after hearing Dan Patrick discuss his book on the nationally syndicated radio show, "The Laura Ingraham Show."Dan Patrick presents the Bible in layman's terms and emphasizes only parts of the Bible that are readily accessible to new and mature Christians without diluting the message of the Bible.

Fantastic Introduction to the Bible

This book is a excellent book for anyone who is looking for answers and wondering what the Bible has to offer. In its easy to read format, the author answers many of the common questions people have as to why it is import to read the Bible. The life experiences presented in the book by both the author and many of the famous people he has met during his life, makes this a very enjoyable. The format of the book is not intimidating and with none of the chapters being very long, it easy to read a chapter a day in 10 - 15 minutes.

A book for anyone seeking the answers to life.

As the author, I am obviously biased. Since God inspired me to write this book, He automatically gets 5 stars and the CREDIT ! I am very interested in hearing directly from you, the reader, as to how this book has impacted your view of The Most Important Book Ever Written, The Bible. This book launched first only in Houston in December. It was an immediate best seller and #1 seller in most stores. It is now in the process of national distribution through major chains. In these troubling times, my sole purpose is to inspire people to read the Bible and understand how they can apply God's Word for their lives. I've written this book in a direct easy to understand manner for non believers, new believers and committed Christians alike. Again, after you read it contact me and share your thoughts. Iron sharpens iron and spirit strengthens spirit.
