Jules,
I purchased Doug's book after pondering and praying over it. Interestingly, The Lord initially impressed me to stay away from the book and focus on other subjects first and foremost, specifically cetain scriptures and John Pontius's books. The Lord then permitted me to order the book with the caveat that I am only to read when I am impressed by the spirit, so it has become a work in progress and I am only half way through. It was fairly heavy material, but I live in a place with tremendous spiritual outpourings, from both sides, and I could feel the railings against me when I first began. Certain subjects resonated with me as I have either experienced them first hand or have discussed these things with other LDS members who experienced them. Other topics however leave a blank spot in my mind which means they are either not true or my spiritual maturity at this time can't comprehend it. I'll continue reading as I am moved upon because I feel, as in all things, that The Lord is trying to teach me about something more important than the topics being discussed in the book.
Just my 2 cents.
"And seek the face of the Lord always, that in patience ye may possess your souls, and ye shall have eternal life."
D&C 101:38
