If you don't want to have your assumptions challenged, then by all means do not read this book. But if want to spend some quality time with someone who has seen life from every side and who is not afraid to let the chips fall where they may, I can guarantee that you will enjoy and benefit from it immensely. Full of warmth, wit, insight, and great (hilarious) stories! —DR.

Through highly personal and entertaining vignette's, Mr. Barnett challenges the reader to see how readily we give up our discernment for the sake of comforting ideas. And with great wit and candor he provokes us with questions that couldn't be more important; How willing are we to put aside cherished notions about ultimate questions, and spiritual philosophy, to devote our time to our emotional growth? How willing -and curious- are we to confront our own blind spots? Above all, how well do love -ourselves, and others. Mr. Barnett has dug deep with this book. and although I don't agree with all the conclusions, ( thus the 4 stars- otherwise it would be a 5) I do strongly think/feel that the questions he encourages us to ask ourselves-( questions which many are way too cavalier about) -are essential to humanity's development, and... although I think it's a loaded word, I agree that the best indicator of our 'spiritual' maturity, is in how we live the answers to these very questions. </span><a><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman';">—Syballine</span></a></span></p> <p></p> <p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#000000;"></span></p> <p><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman';"></span> </p> <p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt;" class="MsoNormal"></p> <p><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman';"></span> </p> <p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#000000;"><font size="3"><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman';">Reading this book was a very enjoyable experience. Even though I have just begun to question my personal spiritual journey, the book "Spiritual Growth is Not What you Think", is a wonderful place to start. I found it entertaining, funny and easy to relate to. The themes that the author writes about are ones that every person considers in their lifetime. I found it to be an unique perspective. I recommend this book to people of all ages and religions. —Jacklyn</span></font></span></p> <p></p> <p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#000000;"></span></p> <p><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman';"></span> </p> <p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman';">A well written and amusing look at the subject of spiritual growth.
