An Epiphany in Print May 2, 2004 13 out of 15 found this review helpful
I experienced a dilemma while reading this..I didn't want to put it down!! Yet I had to stop every few pages, sometimes after just a few lines, to let the message 'soak in'. The content of this book was life-changing for me. I've been in church all my life, and born again for over 20 years, but so much of what we hear about His love for us can become rote...devoid of any meaning beyond the academic. The picture painted here will transform all the platitudes into a vibrating truth that will quicken the Spirit within the reader, and bring breathtaking life into the journey.
Good, not Great April 2, 2004 6 out of 11 found this review helpful
It took me a bit to get into the concept and the material but it made me look at God in a way I had never really considered before and in the end it was worthwhile.
Written by two men anointed with the Spirit March 24, 2004 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
John Eldredge and Brent Curtis are authors who clearly walk close with God. The Sacred Romance is a great treasure! It takes us back to those times when we were young, and the world was full of magic and wonder. They talk about how those ideas and longings were pierced by the Arrows of lifem and on from there. John and Brent remind us that God is a God who pursues us. He is the one who desires to woo our hearts. An eye opening book that will take your breath away. It's easy to relate and dive into the book that has stories and experiences that both authors offer in the book. It's very well written, and one that you will not want to put down. Any true Christian will truly enjoy and cherish this book, and will no doubt cherish and enjoy a closer walk with God- the desire of their true hearts!
Absolutely Life Changing February 13, 2004 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
I would give this book ten stars if I could, because this book absolutely changed my life. In order to say how and why, I would have to give you the history of my entire Christian life, which I don't have room for her. All I can say is that the Sacred Romance opened up my eyes and my heart to a life that is so much better than what most people settle for. I have learned to love deeply, to live freely, and to find God.
Look for and feel the message . . . February 8, 2004 4 out of 6 found this review helpful
This is in response to the review by Challies Dot Com, from Ontario, when he states that the book is full of errors. I feel you have totally missed the essence of this book . . . the message it offers. Love of God and a relationship with Him cannot be judged by anything more than what is in your heart (i.e., soul, spirit) and at some point in our lives, I feel we are all called upon by our souls (our deepest selves) to reunite in spirit with Him. When I read this book I sobbed and thought my heart would break in two. It was part joy, part physical pain, and part a tremendous loneliness that I had been feeling and looking back, I know that breaking feeling was actually my heart opening up to Him again. I am so sorry that you were so intent on viewing the book from a standpoint of history and accuracy (according to whom, I don't know) that you missed the main thrust of the words.
