The Gentle Art of Skimming Across The Top

About the Book

Dear Reader, May I initially explain the intended purpose of this book. IT IS NOT a publication of self-motivation nor does it lay claim to some academic justification. IT IS NOT the work of some Bible bashing GOD botherer, BUT it’s central theme is based on Christian belief and practices, and Biblical references. IT IS offered as a suggested guide to people of all ages to help them establish a strong platform of belief in coping with the complexities of today’s rapidly changing world. IT IS more of a reference manual, to be read, assimilated, and reread now and again, to check progress made in the area the reader feels they can be assisted—as a refresher course. With Best Wishes John Simms
