"Mister God, This Is Anna"

..is an enchanted little book which presents to us "the very large" in "the very small" . . . we encounter "the infinite' in "the finite" . . . in truth that is exactly the way we all encounter "the Divine" . . . "God", no matter how erudite and sophisticated we may deceive ourselves into thinking we are . . . the deeper the "theological sophistry" the larger is the shovel required to bale it out.

This small volume brings into our life a small child . . a five year old girl (just exactly as she appeared into the life of "Fynn") . . . and just as Fynn had the scales fall from his own eyes as he discoursed with this street urchin/angelic waif . . . so too will this encounter open our spiritual eyes to the incarnate presence of "Mister God" in our own lives.

Remember this one most important fact: Jesus, the Son Of God made-man revealed his teachings to uneducated simple-thinking fishermen, the apostles, his first disciples . . not to theological/philosophical PhD's. His message and revelation is that simple . . . and yet so infinitely deep that we will never "know and understand it all.

We can "see" a bit more clearly, through a glass made a bit less dark, if we try to look through the eyes of Anna, this five yearold little girl as she opens her thoughts to Fynn . . . and to us.

Some might be dismissive of this . . perhaps they feel that their erudition is threatened by this little child . . . but Saint Therese of Lisieux was recently declared a "Doctor of The Church" by the late Pope John Paul II precisely to canonize her "little way". Jesus said, "Unless you become as a little child, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven." --- There is nothing to be threatened about by little Anna . . by Fynn . . . nor by this little book . . .but there is a great "awakening" to be gained and profited by for us if we read it with a "childlike wonder". Rediscover "faith".

Thank you "Fynn" . . . and thank you little Anna . . . and thank you, Mister God! :)

A fine book!
A charming introduction to thinking outside the orthodox boundaries of Western science and religion. Several reviews I've seen for this book appear to have been written by people who had bitter reactions due to strong personal biases in these matters. This would seem to speak rather more deeply about the inhibitions of the reviewers than of the subject.

If you are not firmly attached to any dogmatic approaches to thinking and being, if you can walk through a romantic summer evening without needing to reassure yourself by explaining the astrophysics of star light to whoever is within earshot, you will probably find this little book entirely worthwhile.
