Customer Reviews

Finally, a practical guide for your spiritual journey.

I recommend Gustin's guide to anyone overwhelmed by feelings of betrayal, depression, despair, loneliness, anger and other emotions that are destructive to the soul. Suffering from such emotions, I picked up Gustin's guide. Having read numerous self-help books and other spiritual guides, my expectations were modest - a temporary distraction and reinforcement of abstract theories of good and evil. My expectations were far exceeded, and for the first time in years, I felt hopeful about my ability to truly start the first leg of my spiritual journey. How does the guide do it? The right combination of everything you will need for your journey: suggested prayers; practical exercises; words of encouragement; and real life examples and explanation. The guide has made a true difference in my life - it allowed me to open the suitcases, pack them and start the first leg of my journey to taking responsibility for my life. I am finding great comfort, peace and absolute joy, in the ability to do so.

A powerful message that we all need to hear.

Marilyn's book is wonderfully uplifting, yet at the same time provides a strong message to get off the blame track. Life is full of difficult lessons. God speaks to us to help us learn from our mistakes and to recognize them. Making changes in our lives based on what we have learned is one of the rewarding gifts of our free will-- if we utlize it.
