Conversations with God

In the spring of 1992, Neale Donald Walsch was in despair. In the middle of one night, he wrote an angry letter to God. Here is what he says, in Conversations with God, Book 1:

It was a spiteful, passionate letter, full of confusions, contortions and condemnations. And a pile of angry questions. Why wasn't my life working? What would it take to get it to work? Why could I not find happiness in relationships? Was the experience of adequate money going to elude me forever? Finally ? and most emphatically -- What had I done to deserve a life of such continuing struggle?

To my surprise, as I scribbled out the last of my bitter, unanswerable questions and prepared to toss my pen aside, my hand remained poised over the paper, as if held there by some invisible force. Abruptly, the pen began moving on its own. I had no idea what I was about to write, but an idea seemed to be coming, so I decided to flow with it. Out came...

Do you really want an answer to all these questions, or are you just venting?

And so began his Conversations with God.

Here are Neale Donald Walsch's most recent books followed by his previous books in the order they were written.
