Will Give The Courage To Be

Appreciating the spiritual identity of Ms. Scovel as well as the universal principles, she helped me to realize “The Courage To Be” all that I’ve been blessed to go through wasn’t to be in my present circumstances, but in fact “To Be” all I was created for, joy, love, peace, friendship, Abundance, wealth, and success in dreams coming true from my creator(Jesus). I’m going to listen again and can’t wait with anticipated excitement for the results. This Book Is Timeless

My New Life Handbooks

This book was such a wonderful and eye opening experience. I have shared it with several of my friends with the hopes they find as much manna inside as I did. I listen to it on a daily basis, chapter by chapter. I find new gems and discoveries with each listen. I am so glad this book was sent to me.

insightful, for the pondering mind.

the concepts in the book are timeless and primarily based on biblical understanding, but it had been narrated into modern everyday idiomatic applications

Great universal wisdom

I found this book to very insightful, helpful & inspiring. I found the ideas & wisdom to be very simple yet extremely powerful when implemented . I did struggle a bit with the reference to religious text, even though I felt the ideas themselves are not religious. I found I just had to change any reference to God around to spirit or universe, whatever felt more right to me at the time. A worth while read.

interesting book worth the listen

I found this book quite interesting it was at times a little controversial to my beliefs but that is one of the things I liked about it that it challenge me. if you want something you've never had you have to do something you've never done was my belief going into this book. I think it had some really great points in there which can really improve your life and make this book well worth while.
