Book Review: A Conversation With God By Alton Gansky
Thank you to BookSneeze® for providing a free copy of this book for me to review.
I was very excited to receive this book from BookSneeze to review. I was surprised when I received it though. The format of the book is drastically different then what I expected. This book is a series of questions and answers with the answers by God, Jesus, and other biblical figures.
I found this book to be "dumbed down" on most levels and I'm still not sure how I feel about someone pretending to talk as God himself. Overall, I believe that on a lot of levels this book can be a good reference for many people learning about Christianity or younger readers looking for additional scripture references. This book also addresses a lot of questions that I think younger readers would like to ask God, such as "God, Who Are You?" and "Is Satan Real?".
Overall, I would rate this book at a 4 out of 5. This is an easy read and one that I believe most people will enjoy. It is one that I am passing on to a younger friend who I believe will find the book enlightening.

Book Review: Couples who Pray: The Most Intimate Act Between a Man and a Woman
Squire Rushnell, Louise DuArt. Couples who Pray: The Most Intimate Act Between a Man and a Woman. Thomas Nelson, 2011. 224 pages.
Thank you to BookSneeze® for providing a free copy of this book for me to review.
The main purpose of this book is to provide a 40 day prayer challenge for couples. To get you started, it includes a questionnaire which is helpful for understanding where you stand as a couple in prayer life.
I was very excited to read this book after requesting it from booksneeze.com. I am a firm believer in the power of prayer and was hoping this book would provide addition insight for my marriage.
The writing is clear and easy to understand. The book also provides personal accounts from famous and not-so-famous couples. I did enjoy the personal accounts the book offered but I wish it included more scripture references. For me, this book reinforced my already standing beliefs of the power of prayer especially in marriage. For newly engaged or married couples I would recommend this book. For couples who already have a prayer routine established, this book will have little to offer, only just reinforcing your beliefs. Or if you just enjoying reading other peoples accounts of the power of prayer in marriage, then you will probably enjoy this book.
Overall, I would rate this book a 3.5 out of 5 stars. If it was full of scripture references I probably would have rated it higher.
