Jack completely didn't behave as though his heart or head were open to being inspired or moved by God, it was so closed off most of the time. Definitely don't waste your time with this book. The new one I'm reading about the Camino is written by a priest who walked it and already (10 pages in) the writing is poetic and beautiful and open to the mysteries of the Way without being sappy or pretentious. Thanks for the comment-love! :)WritingWillowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10087089064442209724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3134539393577487671.post-82554061245168228702015-06-03T15:31:32.849-07:002015-06-03T15:31:32.849-07:00That's the plan for sure - although I'm no...That's the plan for sure - although I'm not sure how good my internet access will be when I'm in Spain... Netflix should still have it - be advised: I cried at several points in the movie. It was SO much better than this book.WritingWillowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10087089064442209724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3134539393577487671.post-88300964538225684142015-06-03T06:54:13.007-07:002015-06-03T06:54:13.007-07:00LOL!

Anyhow, it's sad that so many people, Jack included, believe that God's just going to hit them over the head with an epiphany or miracle, or strong feeling of belief. But you gotta ask for it Jack, or at least have your heart open a little bit to hear Him. So thankful you wrote this review though! I won't be reading this book. ;)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08200648749973413906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3134539393577487671.post-80838100835517036522015-06-02T22:35:51.225-07:002015-06-02T22:35:51.225-07:00In spite of not being able to stand the author you...In spite of not being able to stand the author you have stuck with the book.
