Few modern writers have had more influence on popular thinking about God than Neale Donald Walsch. The seminal trilogy of Walsch's ongoing exchanges with God—Conversations with God: An Uncommon Dialogue-Books, I, II, and III—is brought together in this one unabridged audio edition. Walsch—with award-winning actors Ed Asner and Ellen Burstyn—reveals a God who is loving, believable, understanding of our weaknesses, and, most important, easy to talk with.

Conversations with God is Neale Donald Walsch's account of his direct conversations with God that began while Walsch was immersed in a period of deep depression. He composed a letter to God in which he vented his frustrations, and to his surprise, even shock, God answered him.
