Publisher's summary

A New York Times best seller. Suppose you could ask God the most puzzling questions about existence, and God would provide clear, understandable answers? It happened to Neale Donald Walsch.

Conversations with God is Neale Donald Walsch's account of his direct conversations with God, beginning in 1992 while Walsch was immersed in a period of deep depression. He composed a letter to God in which he vented his frustrations, and much to his surprise, even shock, God answered him. Focusing on the universal truths that influences all life, Conversations with God offers a picture of the way life could be better.

Conversations with God challenges us to push past the imagined boundaries of what we believe ourselves capable and look instead to all than we can attain as co-creators with God.

Great book

Enlightening. A little bit too much about politics, which is something I'm never interested in. But if you like politics, you might enjoy it.

Enlightening!

Loved the presentation and the unique perspective. Enjoyed the narration and the discussions at the end. Highly recommend this audiobook!

Life Changing

I loved this book and the contents have revolutionized my life! I Remember much more and daily dig deeper into remembrance. All I have thanked God for has come to past! I'm amazed and astounded that application is so simple. God bless Neale and all others involved in making this available to me. I'll download all others like this one, and share with all my friends. I live in abundance. ❤️😍😍😍

Good but perhaps biased

Definitely some great messages like the first one, but it seems like Mr. Walsch's personal beliefs tint a lot of the dialogue. Of course I would expect that as everything would be filtered through his life experiences, vocabulary, culture, and knowledge. If I had a similar dialogue, perhaps the solutions for our problems would come out as more libertarian. Perhaps not. Regardless, it's always interesting hearing different perspectives and challenging truths you hold. I understand people coming to this material are at all levels of spiritual growth, but personally I found the political and Christian stereotypes to be a little bit annoying. It seemed like he was still playing dumb (or Devil's advocate, if you will) for the benefit of those who grew up in strict religions. Which, admittedly, is probably a great need for many people. Some continued repetition about how God came to him. Good interviews. Overall, a good addition to the Conversations and a continued positive message of love!

Great inspirational book & narriation too

Would you listen to Conversations with God Book 2 again? Why?

Yes, because it is a book that has so much information. Must put it down, give it sometime and than come back to it when you have experienced yourself then you will be able to acknowledge other ideas & theories.

What other book might you compare Conversations with God Book 2 to and why?

First of its kind that I have read.

What does Ellen Burstyn and Ed Asner bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

The emotional character that the author would had perceived, although at times I would imagine god to be less frustrated or even angry sometimes, which does a bit go against the fact that God sees nothing as right nor wrong.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

What is right? What is wrong? Think Again!

Any additional comments?

this book has made it so much easiler for me to read books, especially during transit and have enabled me to finish Book 1 and Book 2 already. As a slow reader, listener as well as I had to go back and listen again and again some parts. The additional interviews were really great and at better interviews than in book 1.

Life Changing!!! Inspiration from the Beloved.

LET'S CHANGE THE WORLD. LOVE CAN CONQUER OUR FEARS, ALWAYS AND ABSOLUTELY. NAMASTE

Incredible, feels true

If Neale reads this, maybe he can find out why our forgetfulness is key? This was mentioned but not expanded upon as promised. I would sure like to be able to retain all skills and knowledge that we have learned but forgotten not only in this life but previous ones. It sure seems a shame to waste 20-30 years of every life to learn new skills and relearn old ones. It was consistently stated that our forgetfulness is key to the plan, and that we aren't here to learn, yet with our often failing memories we must learn and relearn. It was said that we are here to remember, and that we know all, future, past events and knowledge of everything. Maybe this is what is gained through meditation, but it doesn't allow one to necessarily practice medicine. It would be great to say I know all about any subject and it be true and socially accepted. It would have been more credible had Neale not mentioned "The Course in Miracles", as the subject matter is very similar. We are constantly evolving spiritually and mentally as a human race: This series seems similar to the difference theologically speaking between democracy and tribal headhunters. Looking back with 20 /20 vision we may say later, how did we ever have such a narrow mind on theology to assume that God is limited to our mental constructs. 400 years ago we thought we could fall off the edge of the earth. I'm in favor of widened beliefs. One thing has me puzzled. If we exist in all moments seperately, how does our consciousness seem so serially connected? What is the miniscule moment of time or awareness that each seperate one of us endures? When time seems to stand still, maybe it's because this moment is experienced by many of our imagined identities and held in awe by each.

My least favorite of the three but I still good!

I do have to say of all three books this one was the slowest moving for me. However, that doesn't take away from how much I have enjoyed these books. I have said it on all three of my reviews for these books that these are not for those who are not open minded spiritually. I had a hard time at times trying to grasp what the author was trying to get across and I consider myself a very open minded person. SPOILER++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
For instance, in this book "God" states that Hitler is in heaven. At first I had a very hard time swallowing this. I about pulled over on the side of the road ( I usually listen while driving because I travel much for my job) because I was kind of irritated at first for the thought of saying that. I felt very mad that someone would even suggest someone like Hitler would be in heaven. I had to pull myself away from my preconcieved notions and start the chapter over again because I felt I was being close minded which was not what I wanted to do with the book. It definitely continues to build on the thoughts and ideas of book one. These books are very thought provoking and insightful. I really thought that these books are wonderful reads but this one is the slowest of all of them.

Favorite book series of all time

This 4 part book series changed my life for the better as it helped awaken me spiritually. Highly recommend!

amazing and relevant

this book is even more timely than ever. highly suggest reading. the music is a little cheesy though.
