Yes, he did take a unique approach. I hope that many more get to read it. Thanks for the comments.

You've done a good job at the review. I'm glad the read was able to provide you a fresh perspective. This book is not for me, though. Thanks for the review.

I'm not a very religious person so this book really isn't for me. Thank you for reviewing!

"Although the testimonies given may provide sufficient understanding, I just felt that Combs teaching on the subject ended abruptly."

This is a nice point to make, especially in a book you like so much. Thanks for such a thorough review!

Thanks for your insightful review, Magnify3. I have the book, since the title and short description piqued my curiosity. I will definitely read it to gain a different perspective. I will also check to see if there were no errors at all.
