Neal Donald Walsch

From the beginning of time, all we have ever wanted is to know God. And from the beginning of time, we have not known how to make that truly possible for us. The book, Conversations with God, could be your chance to make the shift in your relationship with God that will change your life. In 1992, Neale Donald Walsch's life was transformed in precisely this way when in frustration he fired off an angry letter to God, asking the questions from his heart (but really the questions all of us want answers to) and to his great surprise, received an answer! This divine dialogue lasted for over three years, and became a book that has astounded seekers all over the world with its simplicity and truth. The dialogue has continued, and has now expanded into five volumes of wisdom and insight.
