For me, there'll be no difference. I try to live a good and peaceful life and I guess that goal of Christianity. We all have flaws and mistakes. It's important to note that and learnt from them, but never use it as an excuse.

I am a staunch believer and I recommended this book to one of my friends who happens to be an agnostic. I must say that this book has done something to her. Though still not a believer, she definitely has started thinking over her current beliefs.

I am someone you might consider a non-believer, and I was not particularly impressed. Having read the book, my stance in regards to faith remains the same. I do know that optimism can be very good, but faith, not so much. I did like some aspects of the book though.

People can get moved by words for a short time but change in faith and belief goes way deeper. Faith builds over time and is shaped by your education, beliefs, choices and upbringing.

I think this book could have very well influenced the opinions of many people who read it. I'm not so sure it can change many people's belief systems though. I don't think the book intends to change the beliefs of people too.

Post by Kelsey Roy »

I am a believer, but I will preface that by saying I’ve drifted over the last ten years. This book served to remind me of the implications of my choices and beliefs. I’ve found myself thinking about God more frequently and making an effort to connect with my faith more after reading this book. I can imagine that sometimes seeing instances of intense faith can seem “hokey” for non-believers, and sometimes they are. However, I was inspired by the sheer unquestionable faith shown in this book.

It hasn't changed my way of thinking or my beliefs but it surely makes me think a bit differently. Miracles happen all the time but unfortunately, not everyone gets to benefit from one, so my beliefs are not changed.

I'm a Muslim. So my belief in God is different from the book. But I do believe that only if someone truly sets their previous opinions aside and looks toward faith with an open mind, can a seed of doubt be planted in their hearts. And even if it isn't planted, at least
their previous beliefs will be solidified.

I'm religious and I'm not really fazed by the religious concepts from the book. I did learn the art of love and sacrifice though.

My beliefs have been strong before reading this book. However, this testimony strengthened my faith and gave me more reasons never to lose my faith, no matter what.

I believe a non-believer should have a change of mind after reading this book if they are open minded. However, for me, my faith is strengthened and fire up for more.

I am a believer in God more than in a religious organization, and I must say that this book shocked me and revived my beliefs, it even made me realize the times I have questioned my faith.

Post by Kendal Low »

My mom and aunt are both so set in their faith in God and Christianity. My parents always wanted it to be my choice as to whatever I choose to believe or not believe in. I’ve always gone back and forth between ‘yes I believe’ and ‘no I don’t believe’. This definitely does make me more inclined to follow my mom and aunt in their beliefs.
