Another winner from Yancey,
By "darren777" (Reston, VA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Rumours of Another World: What on Earth Are We Missing? (Hardcover)
Another winner from Yancey. Deals with his idea of the "invisible" world that exists along with the visible one that we deal with each day. This topic was one CS Lewis dealt with quite a bit as well. The thing I love about Phil's books besides his great writing style is all the great annecdotes and stories he has. Hey you Christians out there...dont buy the 27th book of Left Behind series! Buy this book instead.

This review is from: Rumours of Another World: What on Earth Are We Missing? (Hardcover)
This was the first bk of Yancy's I've read and I'm anxious to read his others as I've heard this isn't even the best one. Rumours would be a good bk for anyone searching for God, yet as a Christian, I found it led to deeper thoughts about the unseen world. We often live in the doldrums of daily life not realizing there is a spiritual world that is alive and nearer than we think. His bk reads like you've sat down and read his personal(and very interesting) journal.

Relevant to our present age,
By John Mathai "jeshua" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Rumours of Another World: What on Earth Are We Missing? (Paperback)
This book is a good case of what we face in the present age and for christians a description of the 2 worlds we live in. It is a encouraging book which calls for christians to be aware of temptations of this present age and to be watchful. Only by the Spirit can we overcome the temptations, so do not be fooled. We are called to be light in the world and for this cause we are challenged to look at our life style. So much have we compromised withe world that we don't appear any different from the world in divorce, adultery and lifestyle. Time to wake up and be in the world but not of the world. A challenging book for our times.
