Besides the Bible, what book has had the most profound affect on you?

Question

Mine is, "The Heavenly Man" by Paul Hattaway. It was super tough to put down!!

Answer 1

Favorite Answer

The Lion The Witch and The Wardrobe because of its profound religious sybolism.

Answer 2

That's a VERY difficult question. There are so many books that have had a profound effect. Right now, these two come to mind: How to Talk Dirty and Influence People by Lenny Bruce, and Out of Body Experience by Robert Monroe. No, there's another one: Walden by Thoreau. They all helped me look at the world from different viewpoints.

I'm sure there are more. Some of Mark Twain's essays come to mind. And...

Answer 9

He chose the nails by Max Lucado. Very profound look into the whys of the choices made every step of the way from Jesus' trial to resurrection.

Answer 10

the first time i read the history of the church by Usebius, i wondered at the reason why it wasnt cannonized? its just as good as the book of acts. When i read the book of mormon I know there is much faith inspiring acts within its pages of faith.

The book of Enoch has remarkable sayings.

The Doctrine and covenants too are mind blowing.

Also when i first read the book URANTIA i was blindsided by the alternate story of genesis and the multiple designs of galaxies
