Book Reviews of Where Angels Walk
Book Review: Great Book
Summary: 5 Stars
This book really touched me... I thought it was great.Book Review: Uplifting
Summary: 4 Stars
I received this book from a friend, then picked it up to read a few years later, after I'd done Scriptural research on angels for a project. I enjoyed the book. It was certainly an easy read, because of the format of many short stories. And I appreciated the whole approach on which it was based -- asking people everywhere for their own true stories of encounters with angels. What we read about angels in the Bible tells us how they quickly move in and out of people's lives, often to carry a message or to help in time of need (Peter's prison scene, one of my favorites!). The accounts in this book seem to jibe with those Biblical accounts. But more than that, angels show how God takes care of us, and that's the message I get from this book.Book Review: God Really Hears Us
Summary: 4 Stars
It's wonderful to read stories of others who have encountered God's help in situations. I am someone who has had his interventions many times during times. God in heaven has forewarned me and even sent me an angel that disappered after saving me from drowning. Disappearing after they help is a sign of a heavenly visitor. Funny how the lifeguard ignored me at 7yrs old but God didn't after I prayered to him in the water. I haven't ever forgotten it. You won't forget reading these amazing experiences. I hope to one day write a book on my personal experiences. This book will renew your faith.Book Review: Angels in our Backyards
Summary: 4 Stars
This book shows us that there are everyday angels everywhere. We just have to realize and be open to them.Book Review: Inspiring but lacking in some aspects
Summary: 3 Stars
The book has a lot of uplifting and inspiring stories about angels. When reading it I was inspired to research the concept of guardian angels further. A lot of the stories are very convincing, others seem more coincedental and not necessarily the work of angels. But above all there was one aspect I did not like about the book. I was under the impression that this was going to be a more open minded book to different religions and ideas. But throughout the book the author went back to Christianity and especially Catholicism. If that is what people believe then that is great, but I was expecting to see more stories that were not necessarily religious in nature, or at least are not only Christian. Angels are supposed to work miracles in everyone's lives, not just Christians'. I believe the author, being raised a Christian and still being a Christian, chose to only use stories that were Christian in nature. I found that very disappointing and was looking forward to hearing a more open minded look at the angels.
