This is not a book I wanted to read but I got the impression that maybe the Lord wanted me to read it so that's what I'm doing, listening to it of course. I knew from an encounter with it a few years ago that it's a deception and tried to pass that information on to some women in a Bible study who were reading it, but they weren't receptive o I sdropped out of the bible study an that ended that. I'm not sure how it came up again recently, it just enetrered my mind for some reason and I had this impression that God was asking me to read it.
This is the new version, updated and revised, and I don't know how difernt it mis from the earlier version. It's arranged as a daily devotional going day by day through the year, and the first few entries hit me as so loaded with scripture that I know to be true I wondered why I was being asked to read it if I was. I listened through the middle of February ahnd then started over and then problems started catching my attention. I do believe I should spend some gtime in a blog pot spelling out some of these problems but as usual it's hard work for me just to sit here and try to write something and I'm going to have to do it in installments. So I'll aim to come back to this later.Meanwhile I'd just point people to Warren B. Smith who has a book out exposing Jesus Calling as a New Age channeled work, sort of along the lines of A Course in Miracles, in which he was involved for years before he became a Christian. He is very knowledgeable about how New Age concepts have been working their way into the church over the las few decades and I recommentd getting his book or just finding the talks he has given on the subject that you can find on You Tube.
I'm not knowledgeable about the New Age so the problems I'm seeing are of a different sort, and I hope to get bakc to this soonlj.
