A difficult read BUT WELL WORTH IT

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would recommend this to a friend only if they had the time to listen carefully.

What does Susan Denaker bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Susan Denaker does an amazing job reading this book. Her flow kept me from re-reading many sections.

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

If I were to write a tag line for this book it would be-- "An amazing journey of knowing less but gaining MORE." Or to coin an overused phrase-- "Let go and let God."

Any additional comments?

Are you ready to go deeper with God? This book is so worth the investment. Not a casual read during drive-time. I don't think I could have gotten the message if I had just listened-- I read along as I listened. Kudos to Susan Denaker for the narrative she did. I can't thank her enough! Wonderful, wonderful book.

unfinished

Loved the voice of the speaker and the topic is very deep but found the language hard to listen to as it's not modern. I think it would be easier to read than hear this book as they style of the language was distracting to listen to. I found it hard to receive the great benefits of this book due to it and decided to return it very quickly and purchase a modern version of it. It's the only reason for a low score.
