John attempts to show an unmistakable congruence between the teachings of Christ and the New Age philosophy of oneness/LOA. This is all presented with no promises or expectations and the humble disclaimer of the struggles the author himself experiences with his journey daily. This is the LOA unedited, real, and down to earth.
