As a Christian, I am always on the lookout for good bible based materials. I bought this set of CD's after seeing Joel on tv, and it was a very good move on my part. It is easy to see that the hand of God is on Joel's left shoulder. If you are looking for ways to be closer to God, if you are looking for confirmation that God loves you, if you are looking for ways to improve your walk with God, this set of CD's are an absolute Must Have. Joel's compassion and easy to understand language carry you away, and you can't help but come away with real life practices and principles that will help you in your search for God in your life. A+++
Your Best Life Now is Texan mega-church pastor Joel Osteen's effort to encourage Christians to lead more godly lives. His advice is more practical than spiritual (for example, it is more about how to behave than how to pray) and the book is certainly not loaded with Scripture references. However, anyone who follows Osteen's advice will not be led astray. Learning not to procrastinate, to forgive those who have hurt us and to speak and think on "lovely things" are behaviors we could all probably use more of in our lives. However, I would caution all who truly want to deepen their walk with the Lord to pursue sound biblical teachings and Christian fellowship to progress along the path. Osteen's Southern accent is easy to listen to and the book is made interesting with many personal anecdotes. Overall, this is an enjoyable audio book and a good starting point for Christians seeking more.Read full review
I was overjoyed to win this item! The price I won it at was wonderful, but mostly because Joel Osteen has been so inspirational to me. He has really helped me change a lot of things in my life and opened my heart to God and my eyes to a lot of things that I knew were there, I just needed help understanding they were there for ME. Joel's messages are always so gentle and kind, and never do you feel like he is shouting his message across to you like a lot of the others out there. He just makes you feel loved and makes you feel the Lord's love. I thoroughly enjoy listening and reading all I can that has his name on it.
I purchased the audiobook, because I like to listen to Joel Osteen at home or in the car and I even copied him onto my Ipod and listen to him when I walk every day. His manner of speaking just gets to me, spoken in everyday words and dealing with my everyday problems and concerns...He does preach or shout about sinners, he actually HELPS you and shows you how you can speak to God yourself....He teaches you to change the way you think about your life and helps you accomplish what's important....It is satisfying to hear him EVERY DAY!!
I enjoy Joel's speeches and books. I have the CD's and listen to them all the time. He has a soothing voice and there is a lot of humor in his speech. This is a book/cd that makes you think about life and choices you can make and also on positive attitudes and thinking. I am sure than anyone reading or listening will greatly benefit from it and have a different view of their life.
