A REVIEW OF ECKHART TOLLE'S
A NEW EARTH

I first heard of Eckhart Tolle during a medical examination. After learning that I was a professor of biblical spirituality, the doctor asked, "Have you read Eckhart Tolle's The Power of Now?"

A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle

I said no, I had not. A brilliant, multi-talented man with a Catholic background, the physician began to commend the book to me as insightful and profound.

Weeks later, in order to familiarize myself with it prior to my next trip to the doctor's office, I leafed through the bestseller at Barnes & Noble. My initial impressions were confirmed with every passing page. The Power of Now was just another New Age, man-centered, self-help manual claiming to be the solution to every problem. And whether by design or default, the net effect of the book was to present itself as a replacement for the Bible and the Christ-centered faith the Bible produces.

Tolle's A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life's Purpose is simply more of the same.
