I won this book through Goodreads. Lots of easy and practical advice. Great read

This is a personal account of a Christian physician religious beliefs, and how these studies helped him cope with life. I am Jewish so I didn't get much out of it. In fact he seems confused to me when he refers to the God of Israel and then a messiah (Jesus). Doesn't make any sense if you know anything about Judaism.
