I know this to be an excellant book. However, I received the package in the mail on 8/11/07 and it was empty. There was no tape on the ends of the cardboard and the book must have slid out in shipping. Would you please send me another copy.This is a packaging issue and not a postal problem. I believe all the responsibility lies with your company.

I was very saddened to hear how popular New Age Theology from Hannah Hurnard is being promoted within the church. She teaches an open rejection of the Gospel, Necromancy, Universalism, Pantheism, Reincarnation, etc…. Her final book The Inner Man is possibly a bit hard to find, but is the fullest accounting of her nonChristian heresy. Christians should not read or support New Age theology nomatter how good it may sound! Sometimes the more wormy the theology the more “godly” we think it is. It’s sad because Scripture is all about the victory we have in Jesus. As a student of Philosophy, World Religions and Theology, I have been studying the Buddhistic influence within Christian mysticism today, and Hannah appears to be one of the front people in its promotion. Please avoid this book and find true sanctification through faith and worship of Jesus Christ, not Buddhism. A skunkweed by any other name, still stinks.

The book was definitely old and yellowed but totally in tact otherwise. It was appropriately priced and well worth it!

This is a spiritual and uplifting book. It is also an overly sweet and slightly preachy book. I admit from the (paperback) cover I was hoping for the tale of a doe deer, *at play in the Fields of the Lord*. Instead, it is a well-meant, if vaguely generic, journey of a timid girl*s journey to Christ. Everyone bears a descriptive Pilgrims-Progress name such as the girl Much-Afraid, the odious Lord Craven, the quiet mountain guides Sorrow & Suffering, the spirited Mrs.Valiant, etc. The girl must face many challenges, of course, must have her faith tested, of course, must fall away from the path, of course. All this is encouraging for both the novice and the longterm Christian; yet it will not be to all tastes. I have seen a similar treatment in CS Lewis* The Pilgrim*s Regress, but with stronger results. This book is encouraging, yet I find it on the level of a meal made up of mainly broccoli, whole-wheat bread, brown rice, and tofu: It is good, it is filling, but is that all there is? A good book, but left to those who enjoy that sort of meal.

This book is good and solid, but tends to turn to being overly preachy and tends to lose my interest. It’s slow moving but eventually fulfilling.
