Conversion

[Misshalfway]

Yesterday I read a book. It's called "The Peacegiver" by James Ferrel. My assumption is that many of you have read the book and that again, I am late to the party. But I don't care. The book found me at the exact right moment that I was ready for it.

I wish I could explain its impact on my heart, mind, and soul. I don't know if such is possible. Perhaps such understanding can only be between me and God. But I'll say this.... I think I became a Christian today. (breath.)

I loved The Peacegiver. I'm glad you enjoyed it too. Most of the people I've talked to who have read this book have had a similar experience.

I just looked at it on Amazon and read the first few pages.... made me cry.

When I read this book, I started a brief discussion that talked about some things I got out of the book. http://www.lds.net/forums/book-club/39809-peacegiver-james-ferrell.html

Overall, I agree that it was a good book, with a real message about forgiving others their trespasses against us and allowing Christ to help us grant that forgiveness.

I find the subject and doctrine presented in the book very powerful and something that is very important in believing in and understanding the Christ. But I find the endless dribble between the grandfather and grandson to be a distraction to the power in the ideas presented. None-the-less, I consider the book a must read for any person considering themselves a Christian. Just skip the boring repetitive non-important parts.

You must not like Socrates.

I actually appreciated and even needed the conversation led by the Grandfather.

You are like my wife - I am sorry but I keep forgetting that in reality I am the minority and that you and my wife are the majority.

I haven't read it!

(If it makes you feel better, I'm still at the 7/11 picking up bags of ice, texting to see if there's anything else I can pick up to cover that I'm not at the party )
