Description: Here in this collection of 365 daily meditations lives the essence of a great spiritual teacher -- one who truly understood the wellspring of life. The keen insights I captured here speak as freshly to the everyday needs of humanity as they did the day Fox first wrote them.Culled from Fox's published and unpublished lecture notes and manuscripts, this guide for daily living also includes much-loved passages, from Sermon on the Mount, Fox's million-copy bestseller, along with the popular Power Through Constructive Thinking.
Details: Although the paper is a bit thin and flimsy. . . .the books were delivered in excellent condition and totally effective.

Review Summary: Good for the mind, but not the soul
Date: 2008-03-29
Details: If you've read Emmett Fox's interpretation of "The Sermon on the Mount," you know that he sees the bible as a series metaphors and poetry, as well as an account of the life of Jesus Christ. No problem. But if you're in need of a daily spiritual word, this is not the book for you. His daily readings are very much geared toward the intellect and not the emotional or spiritual. I kept it on my bedside table and read the daily entry for about two weeks until I realized I was thinking too much. Try "God Calling" for daily, concise inspiration. This is more intellectual self-help with a slash of the Spirit.
Review Summary: Wonderful Daily Meditation Book
