An Influential Work,
By
This review is from: Unspoken Sermons (Paperback)
Finally in paperback, this book provides the core of George MacDonald's life message. He gained a reputation for not conforming to the commonly held beliefs of his time early in his career. After being dismissed by the elders of his first congregation, MacDonald could not find a church to take him as a pastor. He found writing as the way to share his understanding of the good news about Jesus Christ. Hence these are "unspoken" sermons. We are all better for it. These are the words often quoted by authors such as John Eldredge, and C.S. Lewis. Macdonald's profound clarity on the essential truth in Scripture, especially the words of Jesus, is only clouded by the language of the nineteenth century. His thorough understanding of God's heart and love is the foundation of these messages. With a little perseverance you will be richly rewarded.

Life changing,
By E. Renz - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Unspoken Sermons (Paperback)
If you are familiar with C.S.Lewis, you've probably heard of George MacDonald since Lewis quotes him often. MacDonald's "Sermons" have had a greater impact on my life and beliefs than any other author. His beliefs have just the right ratio of love, mercy and justice. In fact, he explains why God's mercy and justice are one and the same thing. While reading this book I am continually awed by the beauty of his writing. Many people I've talked with that have read this book were discouraged because they had a difficult time following him through some of his arguments. Some of his thoughts are difficult to follow but perseverance paid off for me. MacDonald has convinced me that I have misunderstood God and his intensions towards me. He has convinced me that "God is Light and in Him there is no darkness at all."

A MUST READ,
By Kristopher K. West - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Unspoken Sermons (Paperback)
I have read hundreds of books dealing with every aspect of Christianity, religion, theology and philosophy. I also have a degree in theology. In my opinion this book has had more impact on my life then the sum of the others I have read combined! C.S. Lewis considered MacDonald his master and I never understood why until I read this collection. It is the best, most impacting book I have ever read. It can be a hard read at times but don't let that stop you because it's well worth it! I never write reviews on anything; I have been impacted so strongly by this book I had to let everyone know how great it is and is a must read for anyone! If you are a seeker of truth and are ready for real answers in your life than this is the book for you. This is by far the best collection I have ever read. It changed my life and would wager any amount of money you will find a similar response. Don't even think about it; Just get it!!!

George MacDonald,

I love Macdonald's novels so I purchased this book. It is deep reading at times because of the translation but well worth the time. His insights into God are terrific at times.
