- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The book narrated by the author is very interesting to listen to. The author has a good understanding of the big picture of the Bible. Will recommend ??
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Emotional and passionate but not theologically accurate in my opinion
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A theologically sound overview of the the garden of Eden and its symbolism from Genesis to Revelation. The hope for the new Paradise of God where the people of God once again enjoy perfect fellowship with God, is unpacked and applied to culturally relevant issues. The reader will find that a place better than Eden awaits those who have been purchased by the blood of the Lamb. I highly recommend this book and especially enjoyed the audio version read by the author.
