After reading this book I found
myself looking at everybody through different eyes--
Christ-like eyes! It was amazing!
At first I wasn't sure I was
going to relate to this book. The story begins with the a
husband, Rick in pain over his more than difficult wife and
collapsing marriage. But in a spiritual (and scriptural)
traveling dream, guided by the spirit of his dead grandfather,
Rick's journey becomes our journey--a journey of truth and
forgiveness and humility and understanding and Christ-like love.
This dream masterfully shares profound truths about the atonement of
the Savior through the use of simple biblical passages.
This book was chosen for our
Christmas book group for its message of peace and its
similarity to the famous story A Christmas Carol. Rick
is taken on a dream-like journey in the night, much like the
character Ebenezer Scrooge. In the end, both turn to a better
life and we come away resolved to do the same.
Happy Reading
