This is my second attempt at listening to something by Marianne Williamson, as people have often recommended her to me as a source of spiritual wisdom.

However, I am having two problems with this.

The first is the terrible audio quality and the second is the content.

This is more like a church sermon than it is an audiobook; heavily Christian, with many references to Jesus and the bible, and also to the contentious work "A Course in Miracles" - which I believe some Christians believe to be very anti-Christian.

I'm not affected or offended by this, just suspicious of the message.

I do not dispute the benefits of surrendering to a 'Higher Power', and having used 12 Step Programmes in my teenage years to escape my own issues, I do find a great deal of truth in the necessity for a Spiritual path, but that is not the same as personal empowerment. Her idea that God will make all your decisions for you is flawed.

For example, she uses the example of the bumper sticker "God is my co-pilot" and asks why God is ONLY the co-pilot and not the pilot -- but in the real world that does not work. You cannot take your hands off the steering wheel and expect Divinity to take you 'round corners; you will crash if you don't take action.

Don't get me wrong about this, it has some good points and some insightful wisdom, but I'm undecided on this presentation's usefulness as it doesn't really seem to be about 'manifesting abundance', it's more about trusting God and letting Him do it for you -- and yet here I am in middle age, having done all that surrender stuff for many years and still not being where I'd like to be.

It's a bit preachy and religious
