This book is without a doubt for the seeker of truth-- our spirituality and purpose on this planet. For the Christian, it offers an explanation of an awareness not embraced by them; it further offers an awakening into a broader understanding of life on the earth and its continuity after the change many term 'death.' Although the author rightfully claims to find fault with organized religion as many do, he offers an eye-awakening awareness and our purpose on earth. In his search for truth, he offers the truth of a whole new world of hope, comfort, and most of all enlightenment. Too often our religious denomination keeps one restricted to ideas outlined by that religion. However, if one is to search for truth, an awakening opens up many doors of opportunity as expressed herein. The message brings clarity to physical death allowing the Spirit to move onward into a life beyond the grave. Although conflicts in the Holy Bible are pointed out, that again brings to light why one must continually search for truth. The author, raised as a Christian, has opened his consciousness to a new awareness he terms as Christian Spiritualism. The last section of the books brings the philosophy of Spiritualism into a new clarity for the reader. This book is a must read with an open mind . Your awakening lies within your hands as you read the Way and the Spirit. - Reverend Marilyn J. Awtry, N.S.T.
