 The Others Were Better..., 2002-09-11
I really enjoyed the previously work by Bruce and Stan like "Guide to the Bible", "Real Life Has No Expiration Date", etc., but I can't help but whine a bit about this particular book because it wasn't really all that fascinating. They try to cover a lot of ground in it, which is nice, but tends to be distracting to the matter at hand. Unfortunately, Bruce and Stan are still clinging to the old teachings and doctrine (for example, they still believe Moses wrote the Torah, that Satan was once an angel, that there was an angelic fall, and so on and so forth...) and this tends to spoil the overall enjoyment of the book as most of the older information lacks sufficient evidence and support. Still, it might be useful to younger people discovering God or anyone who is curious about the subject in general.

Not As Good As The Others..., 2002-04-10
Let me start by saying that I am a *HUGE* fan of Bruce and Stan's work...that is why I was so disappointed by their "Guide To God". True to form, it contains the same easy lessons and self-deprecating humor that has made the other books so wonderfully entertaining and popular, but the content is -- to put it simply -- very dull. The book itself doesn't actually reveal anything that even the "youngest" Christian doesn't know, though people who are relatively new to the concept of the Lord might benefit from it. Unfortunately, I didn't really enjoy reading it as I did "Real Life Has No Expiration Date" and "Guide to The Bible". Truthfully, the authors' attempt is noteworthy, but the overall result isn't anything special.

 This Book Is Great!!!!, 2000-10-16
I have read this book three times, given it to new believers, and used it in Bible studies as well. This guide is perfect for any level of believer! It provides examples for everyday life, encourages readers to think of God in modern terms, and re-emphasizes basic truths for more mature believers. I love this series and look forward to more books covering topics such as Prayer, Worship, God's promises, etc. I'd also like to see more books for teens on dating, relationships, etc. Bruce and Stan have done a great job at portraying the real-ness of God!!!

Great for Christians of all types (especially new ones), 2000-06-19
This book takes a wonderful approach of explaining God beyond the bounds of denomination. Being a newer Christian, I often got confused on what God does and doesn't do, when is the rapture, etc. This book breaks each topic down and explains the different views on each topic and why different denominations have these views. It was extremely helpful! Definetly recommended for anyone who is new to Christianity and trying to figure out which denomination they believe! Also has very handy Bible references to supplement the reading and see where the authors are coming from

Relax people..., 2000-04-22
Enough about the title! This is an outstanding book with a straight forward and, dare I say it, "user friendly" format. Unbutton your top button on your shirt and just focus on what God had them do. For all we know He ordained the title. Folks, this is a great book to explain those little things we have a hard time talking about and reminding ourselves about why we follow Christ. Get past the subtitle and into the book. Also, use it with a Bible... :o)
