In the vein of Conversations with God and A Course in Miracles, Lessons from the Source was written through a process called "inner dictation". Author Jack Armstrong writes on his site:
"As the process is happening and I am writing feverishly, I usually have no conscious memory of what I already have written. When the flow of words has stopped and I review what has been written, I inevitably am astonished by how the message itself is coherent and flows naturally from one subject to the next, and is written in a style ― and often with words ― unlike those I typically use in my own writing. And even more remarkable, I have never felt a need for significant editing."
I myself have read many spiritual books over the years, including teachings by Neale Donald Walsch, Ramana Maharshi, Eckhart Tolle, Byron Katie, and others. I appreciated that this book not only resonated with me like the best spiritual books I've read before, but that it did so in such a positive way! Plus, the writing is so clear and immediately accessible.
I heartily recommend Lessons as a gentle and uplifting book to pick up when you need that deep-down reassurance that you are in God's hands.
