5 out of 5 stars The Cry Of The Soul   May 3, 2008
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

One of the best books I have encountered on human emotions in relation to God's working in our lives and the failures of the human heart in dealing with them apart from God. Chapter 10 - Abandonment and Despair: The loss of hope, and Chapter 11 - Redemptive Despair: The restoration of hope, have been wonderful assets in helping others.

This book has uncovered so much truth into my life and a message you will not hear from the pulpit but should. It has set me free! Incredible writing!


5 out of 5 stars soul cry   April 6, 2008
This is an excellent piece of work which cuts to the core of our emotional fight with God. It reflects the real struggle of Bible figures who over the ages have had the same struggles.

But in the end it will bring a deep sense of peace when the struggle is over. A great tool to understanding and working out our emotions.



4 out of 5 stars Emotion does not equate to sin   February 8, 2008

Dr. Dan Allender, makes a powerful case for the "righteousness" of emotion at its purist God given form. For most of my life I have been taught that emotion is wrong, from the devil, and from our brokenness. This book challenges that belief and has cleaned up emotion's reputation as it is usually drug through the mud of the sin we allow it to create in and through us. Emotion is blamed for the sin the carrier produces; much like Christ or the church is blamed for the sin Christians produce. Thank you for clearing up emotions reputation. This book has given me permission to feel. I now have a clearer picture of the Gospel of Christ!


5 out of 5 stars very eye opening and relevant   January 28, 2008

This book was very good reading. It was easy to follow, yet was not shallow or filled with platitudes. It causes one to truly look at the root of one's emotions and deal with them. For too long emotions have been misunderstood. One camp says that they are evil. The opposite camp states that emotions are truth. Both are wrong, and the truth regarding our emotions comes out in this book. I was very impressed with the way the authors handled the subject and challenged the reader to look deeper, with honesty, into our emotions.
