Solid,
By Jane Derry "Healing for Families" (Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Around The Year With Emmet Fox (Paperback)
My first copy of this book was one that I shamelessly asked for from a fellow member in recovery in P.V., Mexico. It looked like it had been in the sun and the sand, and maybe splashed by the ocean for many a day. It was water stained and the pages were crumpled, yellow and wavy. Pages slipped to the floor. I read the book, everyday, while it continued to fall apart in my hands, for the full year. I have since purchased a brand new copy that now sits on my book shelf, full of wisdom and challenges, waiting for me to go around the year again. I'm not sure when that will be, but I hold this volume dear to my heart. I am grateful. ahomeaway.org

This review is from: Around The Year With Emmet Fox (Paperback)
This book of daily devotions contains unpublished and published works including selections from The Sermon On The Mount and The Power Of Constructive Thinking. There are poems, prayers, scriptural passages and their exegesis. The theme is personal transformation and the practice of the presence of God. The main theme is that there exists a power that can liberate the captive and transform one's life for the better. This power of being is the Kingdom of God within (Luke 17:21), the power indwelling in consciousness. It is the invitation of Psalm 55:22 - Cast your burden upon the Lord.The text begins with an explanation of Isaiah 9:6, the attributes of God as Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father and Prince of Peace. God is Spirit and we must worship Him in spirit and truth. The seven main aspects of God's nature are revealed as Life, Truth, Love, Intelligence, Soul, Spirit and Principle. Compound attributes consist of 2 or more of these aspects, for example Beauty is made up of Life and Truth whilst Wisdom is a compound of Love and Intelligence. Much information is given on the concept of scientific prayer, which is the practice of the presence. When confronting a problem for example, it is wise to think about God instead of the difficulty. The book is highly inspirational and uplifting and an antidote to spiritual exhaustion caused by wrestling with religious dogma and doctrines. I also recommend Alter Your Life by this author and The Hidden Power Of The Bible by Ernest Holmes.

At last I understand,
By A Customer
This review is from: Around The Year With Emmet Fox (Paperback)
After reading this book I understood for the first time what Jesus taught and why the gospel is the good news. Fox is lucid, practical, inspirational. Of all the books I have every read about spiritual understanding, this one stands at the very top.
