    High Recommended, a great book for anyone who is searching or defining God within oneself, regardless of their religion, beliefs, being agnostic or atheist.

    A 'soul/heart's search' where I find myself pausing after reading a paragraph that catches my attention and makes me reflect in my own life, experiences, religious practices being a Catholic and my intense similarities with Judaism. I find myself at home without being dead, and enjoying God's presence on earth as it is written. A wonderful book indeed!
