A revised and expanded anniversary edition of Conversations with God, Book 2

Jesus did it. Mohammed did it. The Jewish prophets did it. They all spoke directly with God. But none of them spoke to God with the sardonic wit, irony, and raw verve of Neale Donald Walsch. But Walsch is no prophet, and neither is he a new messiah of a new religion. It all began when Walsch, simply a frustrated man, sat down one day with a pen in his hand and some tough questions in his heart. As he wrote his questions to God, he realized God was answering him—directly—through the pen in his hand. The result was Conversations with God, An Uncommon Dialogue—matter-of-fact, in-your-face wisdom for readers on how to live day to day while remaining true to themselves and their spiritualities.

In this expanded edition with new material, Walsch records his discussions with God about time, space, politics—and even kinky sex. It is a contemporary discussion that honestly—and often humorously—explores life’s critical issues and offers suggestions about how the reader’s world can become a much better place when one’s mind is open to having personal conversations with God. The book includes a new introduction, and Walsch has divided the text into three sections, each one prefaced with new, original commentary as he looks back over twelve-plus years of his deeper, more active relationship with God. The words of God are printed in blue.

Buy This Book… Seriously by Alexander Pitu (Los Angeles, CA)

Customers Rating: ★★★★★ 

Sometimes someone or something comes into your life at precisely the right moment that it seems it should. We’ve all had this experience, I’m sure of it. I’m on page 28 of this book and I’ve been reading it, writing down quotations in my journal, thinking a lot about so many things on every single page… I just couldn’t help but jump online and give this book 5 stars.

It’s wild you know… I accidentally bought this book, as it’s book #2 and I was meaning to buy book #1 seeing as how I haven’t read it yet. This book was recommended to me by a girl I’ve met recently in Narcotics Anonymous. I’m back to a path of love now. Self love, and a love of others and all things as I was once upon a time. This book is really a gem. Truly unique. I’ve just started to soften up to the idea of “God,” as I know him/her/it.

There is no precondition of religion, faith, or belief to appreciate this book and the wisdom it holds within. I’ve just gotta say, I cannot put this book down until it’s finished, and it’s gonna take me some time because I’m journalling TONS about every page I read. What a book… everyone should read this. Much love, and peace! :)

More author intrusion than in Book One by Joneve (NY)

Customers Rating: ★★★★☆ 

Book 2 isn’t as good as Book 1, primarily because one more often, and more strongly, has the feeling that God’s views have been displaced in favor of Mr. Walsch’s, which are both politically correct and utopian; moreover, there are issues in Book 2 God simply won’t deal with. For example, we are told, generally, that there are no victims, that we all cooperate in creating the world and everything that happens in it; yet Mr. Walsch’s God holds some explicitly responsible for the nazi holocaust, and conspicuously avoids mentioning responsiblity on the part of the victims — leaving us to wonder if He believes they have no responsiblity, are exceptions, or simply doesn’t want to discuss the matter.

Although God is supposed to make no judgments, and in fact tells both Walsch and the rest of us that everyone is perfect, the world is perfect, and we must experience who we are not in order to experience who we are, we are also told by God how to change things for the better often enough to get the idea that all’s not as He would wish it, that we could (and should?) implement certain changes (the sooner the better?) to make the world a kinder, gentler place. And at times God verges on applause for Clinton, Bush, and others. (A minor point: Book 2 is not as well-proofed as Book 1; for example, at the top of page 197, the word “quality” should be “qualify”.)

Nevertheless, there are profound observations in Book 2, making it well worth reading.

Refreshing by A. Robinson

Customers Rating: ★★★★★ 

The Conversations With God series was instrumental in my awakening. As a recovering Fundamentalist Christian, I owe a great debt to God and Mr. Walsch. Of course neither would see it that way. Without revealing too much detail I will just say the turning point for me was discovering this: If God is Perfect Love, how could He/She possibly conceive of, much less create, a place of eternal torture for those of “His Children” who do not follow “The Way”.

I’m paraphrasing but when I read that, a light came on and I was awakened from the nightmare of horror and guilt that is Fundamentalist Christianity. Holy Wars, Sin, Retribution, Sacrificing His Son, these are not God concepts but are man’s concepts turned into religion to control. Perfect Love could never, ever condemn anyone. What happened to “turn the other cheek”? If you have spent years of your life trying to be good, do all the right things, pray, tithe to the church, and nothing seems to work, READ THIS BOOK! You’ll discover God has really been there all along waiting for you to listen to Him/Her instead of man’s religions.
