Reviews of Memoirs of the New Age: "I love Memoirs of a New Age! And I want to tell you that for me, this is not just a book, its more like an earthquake. A quiet rumble, that tantalizes, then shakes, then kind of explodes many of your long cherished ideas of who god is and what a real relationship with god could be. If youre up for some spiritual awakening, buy this book, check out the website, join a readers discussion club or bring the book to your club! Like a wonderful meal, its meant to be shared." Irene Townsend, PhD Clinical Psychologist "I am building a really intimate relationship with this book the more I read it and the more I discuss it in our book club. At first it was just a great book of stories and poems and prayers. Then I started to appreciate the beauty and simplicity of the language and the images, especially in the poems and prayers. Then as I discussed it with others, I began to see how the stories related to me personally and how healing it was for me to go inside and own my experiences as a child or a woman or a spiritual person, feelings prompted by the experiences of the characters or the author. Ive learned so much about myself and theres so much more to learn! This is a book that I dont have to put down when Im done as I have with so many wonderful books Ive read. I am going back over and over it to deepen and enrich my experience of what Im reading. Read it, embrace it, use it, enjoy it, savor it! Im giving this book to everyone I can think of for Christmas!" Helen Hillix-Di Santo, MA, MFT "Dear Editor, I have read Memoirs of The New Age and have been profoundly impacted by these stories. The author, Beth Green, has an uncanny ability to express our human experiences in terms of seeing how we act and react to life is so intricately tied to our perceptions and beliefs about God. The writing is real, poignant, challenging and provides the opportunity for me to explore my own perceptions of God through the character's eyes. I will be reading this over and over. Thank you for publishing it." Chris Reese
