Editorial Review:
Since the publication of his stunning worldwide bestseller Conversations with God (over two and a half years on the New York Times list; now published in 37 languages), Walsch has been telling readers that a new understanding of God can change lives and change the world. Now, in this new book, he expands on that theme by exploring how ordinary people can work in direct collaboration with God to transform their everyday lives into extraordinary experiences. This is not a book of spiritual theory. It provides a plan that can change lives. Included here is a program that Walsch calls ''17 Steps to being Happier Than God,'' a plan that combines the best of the conceptual truths of his 9-book Conversations with God series with the clearest description yet of how to turn those concepts into practical tools for altering life for the better--forever.

Happier Than God  2008-11-24
This is one of the best spiritual books I've ever read! A must read for Neal Donald Walsh fans!
Law of Attraction in 5 Easy Steps 2008-11-20
A very practical guide (at least for me) to the "Law of Attraction".
From pages 54 and 55:
"Life Expresses itself through:
- 1. The Energy of Attraction, which gives you power.
- 2. The Law of Opposites, which gives you opportunity.
- 3. The Gift of Wisdom, which gives you discernment.
- 4. The Joy of Wonder, which gives you imagination.
- 5. The Presence of Cycles, which gives you eternity.
Life, I have come to understand, is God. It is God being God, and becoming what God is next going to Be. This is a complex and extraordinary system that includes a P r o c e s s that produces an E x p r e s s i o n called L i f e."
One of the best teachings for creating your life and happiness 2008-10-19
Culmination of Neale Donald Walsh's extraordinary teachings. Integrates The Law of Attraction, Intentional Creation and Spriritual Insight. One of my favorite books for morning contemplations. Great book to re-read when life seems stressful; it reminds me of tools I can use in the moment for greater happiness and peace.
Another masterpiece 2008-09-09
Both a timely and timeless read, Happier Than God is another book by Neale Donald Walsh I would highly recommend. Its seemingly simple dialogue has a captivating and very real impact. I found it both intriguing and desirable to incorporate the ideas into my life as I have with the other Conversations With God series. And being the ever evolving soul that i am, i am most grateful for more gentle reminders of the truths we could be living right here right now if we choose.
Happiness Is... 2008-08-21
I am often referred to at my church as the irreverent reverend. I say things that shock people. Things like "Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Blessed is he who just comes..." Most people laugh. Maybe it's out of nervousness, I don't know, but I really, really, really think that God has just an incredible sense of humor and I really, really, really think that anyone who does "God's Work" must also have a sense of humor. Kinduv like that old joke:
Why do angels have wings?
Because they take themselves lightly.
I've always enjoyed Neale Donald Walsch's books. He's very presumptious about a lot of things. He basically says that all who are reading this book (Happier Than God) caused it to happen.
What?
You caused it to happen. You. You had an impulse and you acted on that impulse. And not only did you cause this book to appear in your life, but you have caused everything that is in your life at this very moment to appear in your life...including me. And guess what? I caused you to appear in my life, as well.
Of course, this is a book by a man who "claimed" to have had more than a few Conversations with God....
Blasphemer!
Heretic!
Liar!
Brave is what I would call him.
He is challenging which is exactly why one should read him. Like I said, I've read his books since the very beginning and no matter how many times I read his stuff I get new insights. Not because Neale is giving them to me, but because, once again, I caused it to happen. I was ready for it.
What's that great line from Henry the V?
All things be ready if the mind be so.
Some people aren't ready for this kind of stuff. It doesn't mean that one is stupid or ignorant or foolish, they're just not ready for it. A lot of people weren't ready for what Jesus had to say, either. I'm not comparing Neale Donald Walsch to Jesus by any means, but just like the quote he uses from George Bernard Shaw:
All great truths start as blasphemies.
We'd like to say that if we were in Jesus' time or Buddha's time or Socrates time, we follow them anywhere to learn from them. But would we? We like to cling to our old beliefs, our ideas, our opinions.That's why our lives don't seem to change very much --- because we don't change!
He says "We do not need God for anything." Now before you get your knickers in a bunch, he states in the next page (if you stll have the book in your hands), "Not needing God is not the same as not having any use for God..."
And then he quotes scripture, which I agree with some of the reviewers in that he should've cited the passage, "I am with you always, even until the end of time..." (Matthew 28:20)
Do we believe this? No, we don't...but people, that's a promise straight from Scripture. We aren't alone in this. In Truth we are all-one in this.
Being happy, feeling fulfilled, experiencing joy doesn't come from everyone believing exactly the same thing. That would be so dull. Real Joy...being really happy comes from letting people be who they need to be.
There are a lot of people who walk around as if their underwear were on backwards. Come on, people...lighten up. Like that really old joke,
Why do dogs lick themselves?
Because they can...
You can be happy because God created you that way already.
Peace & Blessings,
john, 'the Light Coach'
