If you aren't interested in having someone preach to you, I'd just read the first half of the book. In my case, he was kind of preaching to the choir. I know there are things I need to work on, but it was just a bit too much for me.Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-65984095732159360012011-07-14T10:33:19.380-05:002011-07-14T10:33:19.380-05:00I don't mind books that have religious message...I don't mind books that have religious messages at all, but when I feel like they are bashing you over the head with the obvious and trying to imply that your life is totally wrong and needs a major overhaul is when I sort of get uncomfortable with it. It's fine to share your experiences, but when it comes to alienating others, I just don't have time for that.Zibileehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07443338685890187334noreply@blogger.com
