The God Chasers

Summary: PASSIONATE PURSUIT
Review: In this book Tommy will light the fire in you to truly have a heart that hungers for more of God. I, in no way, feel that he is derogatory about the Scriptures. This is a man that hungers for more of God and will not settle for "religion." He wants a relationship with the living God and fears not what man says. Tommy loves the Lord and wants us each to experience that same love relationship with the Lord of Lords and King of Kings. Jesus is what he hungers for and what he wants us to hunger for as well. More of Jesus NOT more of man's schedules and rigidity in our worship services. For the person that said he could not read past the first chapter, I suggest that you try again. maybe the enemy of your soul got you to put it down so that you could not experience the liberating love of Jesus. As far as Tommy calling the Word of God "old love letters" that IS exactly what Scripture is, God declaring His love for humanity. Tommy did not do anything wrong here, I say GO FOR IT Tommy!

If we begin to read a book with the thought in our mind that we will find something that offends us, then the enemy of our soul WILL find a way to offend so that we cannot get what God has anointed his servants to deliver.

Summary: Hit the nail right on the head...
Review: The churches are full, but of what are they full? As a very open-minded Christian, I share the feelings the author has concerning today's religious country clubs we call Churches. I don't think that the author of this book was trying to put down Scriptures as some supposed, but there is much to God and of God than what He has done in tha past. God wants us to enjoy His awesome presence and not just get a few goosebumps on Sunday mornings and leave the same way we went to Church. We are supposed to seek God's face and not His blessing (2 Chronicles 7:14). Generally speaking, I think that for years we, Christians, have shown the world how loud we can get, how big our buildings are, how holy we are, and yet, there is no bread in the House of Bread. Again, you CAN'T judge a book by reading one chapter, there's no wisdom on that, but this book and any other book that references the Bible MUST be evaluated in the light of the written Word of God and determine is the whole book is out of order with God's will or if there is some meat that is edible. Paul says, "Prove all things; hold fast that which is good." I believe in revelations from God, but they must be in accord with Scripture. Generally speaking, I am so amazed at the arrogance we Christians have when we are confronted with a different point of view of God. If what someone says does not conform to what our doctrine, not Scriptures, teaches, we discard it so easily. While others might think the author is putting down Scripture, at the same time, they are elevating their doctrine/belief above Scripture. I think this book is fabulous and has answered so many questions I had had in the past concerning God. No, this book is not above the Bible, but it is worth the reading. Be a God Chaser not a blessings chaser. Chase the Giver, not the gifts. Be open to the Great Teacher, the Holy Spirit of God. If He says throw away the book, do it. Only HE can lead you to ALL truth. May God bless all who are seeking His face!!!

Summary: Audio quality is very poor
Review: The quality of the recording on the Audio Series is very poor. It distracted from the message. I was expecting this to be a audio version of portions of the book, but instead they are poor recordings of his sermons. Tape 2 of 3 was a recording of someone besides Tommy Tenney.
