After many years of appreciating how David Newman's heartfelt Kirtan  music can merge the emotional heart of everyone in the room with the Divine name. David now opens a new heart, the heart of pure awareness. He does this by telling his humble and real story simply and with amazing clarity. If you like Advaita or if Bhakti is your thing, this book has many gems in which it will allow you to see life differently, and perhaps catch the "Ease" of awakening, or at least ask the question, Who am I really? And, what am I seeking?

I just wanted to take a moment to share how insightful, clear and enhancing this book will be for those who get it.  If the world was only caught up to the level of consciousness presented in this book, we would all know a different level of peace, balance and connection.

Joel's choice to share the simplicity of conversations with Gabriel allows you to feel like you are right there.  Joel asks the questions that have nagged every person in one way or another.  Why are we here?  How can we make our lives better?  How does creation actually work?

I encourage everyone to get a copy and to share it with everyone you believe is ready to stretch into clearer answers about their lives!

As I was reading the book, I asked the Lord, "Is this true?" Already my response was worship and tears of joy, but I wanted more confirmation. I knew that if what Andrew Farley wrote was the truth, my perspective on the gospel and Christianity would be forever changed. Then I was drawn to the story of the blind man who was healed by Jesus in John 9. When Jesus revealed Himself to the man after the healing, the man's response was to say, "Lord, I believe," and to worship Him (see John 9:35-38). Jesus opened my eyes through this book, I believe the truth and continue to worship Him for His amazing grace.

For years I have tried to figure out how to live the Christian life. I was taught that we have two natures that are constantly fighting against each other, but that we also died with Christ and rose with Him to new life. That doesn't make sense.

Then when I read The Naked Gospel, the truth became so clear. I am still in awe of our Wonderful God and Savior. We have died to the Law and to sin. Our old man died with Christ and we have been raised to new life. We have one nature that is holy and righteous in Christ. He is living in us and He lives His life through us by the power of the Holy Spirit. What a liberating message!

I bought over 20 copies of the book to share with others. The Lord is using the book to heal and transform lives. One woman has been so filled with God's love and set free by the truth that she wants to share the message with everyone. The book led her first to search the Scriptures, and now she is filled with joy and peace in the Lord.

Thank you, Andrew, for sharing the truth of the gospel--Jesus + nothing. He has done it all! I receive the truth and walk in it. All glory to God!

CHRIST IS CHRISTIANITY. Period.

It's not theology, philosophy, myth or even religion. It's Jesus Christ.

Boom! It's the smack-you-in-the-head-with-a-brick reality that GREAT NEWS is alive! Yes, absolute truth, unlimited power and incredible love are found in ONE person. To accept Christ in more than a prayer, a phrase or a change. It's relationship with a REAL God. Connection is key!
This book is clear & without apology: the church, as a whole, is woefully disconnected. I share the author's concern and pray that we run back to the radical relationship available to us with Jesus Christ. He must be supreme in and over all things - LORD OF ALL!

"So that in everything He might have the supremacy." -Colossians 1:18

With this said and my passion at the beginning of this review; I must now lament... This book started out strong (for me) w/ me saying "Yes!" often... but, as the book progressed, I found myself wishing the author(s) had left out a few chapters... then, chapter 10 seems to get back on track and finish strong. I don't want to be super negative, but I would say read this book with your Bible near by - be sure that what you're saying `amen' to is found in the Word of God. Jesus IS the Word - books like this can provoke, challenge & inspire (as well as confuse) - but we need THE BOOK to truly grow & become who Christ desires us to be.

An amazing look at what it really means to follow Jesus.  Jason Mitchel is raw and real.  His very honest look at the difference between easy Jesus following and real Jesus following is a breath of fresh air.  This is a book I will read again and again as it speaks to so many of lifes issues and situations where we are asked to truly follow Jesus even when it is not easy or understood.

WOW! True to form Joyce is clear, concise and right to the point. She has a great way of not just making you aware by sharing information, but communicates it in a way that makes it stick. She is clearly a child of God that is being used to increase his kingdom in a powerful way. This is a must read for believers and non-believers.

This is the most truthful book you will read on the subject of heaven and hell and the hope that Our Father has given us in Christ Jesus Who IS the Savior of the WORLD and TOOK AWAY THE SIN OF THE WORLD! This book will reveal all the misconceptions untruths and biased translations of the bible on the subject. If you really want to know the truth and have the intestinal fortitude to accept the fact that everything you have heard from the pulpits; though well intentioned is not true as well as many things in popular translations of the bible. This book will reveal a hope beyond imagination as the Apostle Paul put it "Above all you can ask or think". God is Good and Loves ALL, that is why he sent the Son to Redeem, Restore, Reconcile, and Save ALL. Jesus did not Fail in his mission to save the world He will not loose ONE of all that the Father has given Him and the Father has put ALL into his hands. There is coming a day when every knee will bow and every tongue confess Jesus Christ as LORD to the Glory of GOD the Father of all and God will be All in All! Hallelujah!!! This book is easy to read, well laid out, and ordered so that anyone can understand and see the truth! God bless you on your Journey to the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ. Now may the Spirit of Truth open the eyes of your heart to see the Glorious Grace and Love of God in Christ Jesus!

I highly recommend this book! First of all, what is so refreshing is the logical clarity with which the Botkin sisters present the truth. Their thought-out positions are biblically and logically defended.

As my sister, mother, and I have gone through So Much More together, we have all been encouraged, challenged, and inspired in our roles as women. It has been such a blessing to talk over the different topics and pursue godliness together! It is also wonderful to see the authoresses take Biblical stands on subjects that are usually not addressed, even in conservative Christian circles--and to deal with them graciously, but with truth.

Having met the Botkin family, I would like to say that the charges that some have thrown against them are simply malicious and untrue. It is wonderful to see a family who love each other and delight to work together on the goals of their visionary, loving father.

I would strongly urge you to buy So Much More--it is a treasure trove of biblical wisdom that Christian young ladies today desperately need.

I really enjoyed this book, especially because Arabah Joy writes it with a great deal of transparency. I think most women can find themselves in at least one of her devotionals, and in particular mothers. But most of all, I love the central truth that she brings out. We can trust the Lord wholly, because he is wholly trustworthy. He may not always work in the way we expect him to, or answer as we wish, but he's always working for our good. I thank Arabah for bringing this truth out in such a sincere and convincing way! A highly recommended book for any needing this reminder! I won this book on her website--and what a great win it was!! Yay!

This is an excellent testimonial to the phenomenal spiritual growth believers can experience after seeking and receiving the baptism of the Holy Spirit, an experience separate from the new birth. The Word of God comes alive to you and your spiritual eyes are opened! I personally do not believe anyone can truly begin to understand Paul's epistles (which are written to Spirit-filled believers) without the infilling of the Holy Spirit. I appreciate the transparency with which the author shared her journey and especially enjoyed the excerpt she included on how to determine what ministry you may be called to pursue.

Moreover, I like that she included how it is so important to stay away from those teaching legalism. If your church seeks to place you back under the law, it will definitely hinder your walk in the Spirit...  Scriptures brought to mind:  For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.  ~ John 1:17 (Matthew 5:17, 22:37-40); A new commandment I give to you that you love one another even as I have loved you... ~ John 13:34; Not my might nor by power but by My Spirit... ~ Zechariah 4:6(b). My pastor's wife literally got me the tee shirt ~ "By My Spirit!" I agree with the quote from Catherine Marshall's book, The Helper ~ "how then without the [infilling of the] Spirit can we live anything but a half-life?" I believe this book will benefit and encourage many. It was a good read!
