This is a classic that I had never gotten around to reading! So, I have now read it. I liked it, for the most part. I had many things I stopped and pondered. I didn't like the "you are a miserable sinner" part (Book 3, Chapter 55? I think). I noticed he didn't have a lot of verses to back that chapter up. The rest of the book was lovely.
"What makes the desert beautiful is that somewhere it hides a well" (The Little Prince by de Saint-Exupéry). My journey to a WELL-adjusted heart, WELL-watered soul, WELL-educated mind, and WELL-tuned body. "Love the Lord your God with all your HEART, and with all your SOUL, and with all your MIND, and with all your STRENGTH" (Mark 12:30-31).
