Truly life changing,
By A Customer
This review is from: Power Through Constructive Thinking (Paperback)
I was given a set of Fox's books 17 years ago. I read this book first and in it, found the way to begin my own search for the truth of "being." The best of it is, it isn't just theory or philosphy that seems to make sense -- it works. Fox doesn't give a distinct method of working, he says to find your own way of working. It isn't a religion. It isn't dogma. When he says working, he means praying effectively. Don't you tend to think of prayer as begging a supreme being for good luck? Don't most religions seem to truly be the "opiate of the masses?" Political structures, actually. Try "The Golden Key." I've had so many serious problems melt into the nothingness that they really are. As Fox says in the first page, "This mystic but intensely real force can pick you up today, now, from the midst of failure, ruin, misery and despair .....and solve your problems, smooth our difficulties, cut you free from any entanglements, and place you clear, safe, and happy upon the highroad of freedom and opportunity." It works. But keep in mind, you will apply these principles and your life will change wonderfully, and you will want to tell everyone you know that they can do the same, especially when you see those you love suffering. But most won't be interested, you'll see the most people want to hold on to their problems. It's the old saying, when the student is ready the teacher appears. I was ready 17 years ago and this book came into my life. I am happy, healthy, successful beyond my wildest expectations -- really!! -- I have more to look forward to every day and life is a wonderful experience for me. I have discovered that there is always more and more to discover in this wonderful universe, that there is so much more than anyone can ever dream of! I experience peace of mind more than I ever have before. This is not to say that every day in my life is perfect, but each day is pretty darned close to perfect! And when I let my thinking sink to a level where negativity and bad experiences begin coming into my life, I have learned a practical method of raising my conciousness back to the level that I best experience life. And this isn't a book that just helps you take on a philosphy that helps you carry your burdens, this is a practical method for dissolving negative conditions. The things Fox offers here can be the key to a gateway that you must travel for yourself. It's easier than you think! It's wonderful.

You will never view Christianity the same way again,
By
This review is from: Power Through Constructive Thinking (Paperback)
I stand amazed. I have never in all my years read a book on metaphysics vis a vis Christianity and the Bible that I so completely resonated with. Emmet Fox, one of the original architects of the New Thought Movement published this book in 1932 and it is still fresh--even revolutionary--today. This book is so elegant, sincere and intelligent that it has made me reconsider my identification with Eastern spirituality and turn back to my Christian "roots". This book boils down the big questions sweetly and succinctly, without ever sounding sanctimonious or judgmental. A real eye-opener, and for many on the spiritual path...a breath of fresh air.

A milestone in personal development and healing,
By Samuel Londe (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Power Through Constructive Thinking (Paperback)
I found Emmet Fox's book at a crossroads in my life. This was the second book that I read by Emmet Fox, it began a transfiguration in my life likened to no other. This book deals with specifics in consciousness and practical, real ways to address anxieties and problems each of us face in our daily lives. I can't recommend it enough; it changed my entire outlook on life.
