This book is a prime example of popular evangelical sentimentality which is so pervasive in the Church today. Ideas presented in this book, such as everyone in the world being God's child (see John 1:10-14) and God needing our help, are absolutely blasphemous. Christians would do well to remember what the prophet said in Jeremiah 8:ll, speaking about false prophets: "For they have healed the hurt of the daughter of My people slightly, saying, 'Peace, Peace' when there is no peace." One star is way too many for a book that blasphemes the Holy, All Terrible God of the universe.

I've had this book for years and I pick it up every now and then. It's a feel good book that reminds you how you can make others feel good too. I would compare it to the "Chicken Soup" books, except that these shorter stories start with a bible verse and then give a real-life example of how to live it.
