He Who Has an Ear by Laura J. Davis is a good book! First, it is easy to read. It’s
nice to have a religious-type book written so a regular mere mortal can grasp
the points being made by the author. The chapters are set up so that questions
are anticipated and addressed. Additionally, there are enough historical
references to make the chapters interesting, yet not so much detail as to
become a bore. In other words, this book strikes a perfect balance. I also
found the Scriptural references done in such a way as to communicate the point
without becoming oppressive.
The book allows for the reader to ponder not only the churches of
today as they related to the churches in Revelation, but it also allows the
reader to consider the personal aspects of being a church member and spiritual
member of the family of God. There is likely some good food for thought for
anyone who reads this book.
I think the author displays a refreshing bravery in “telling
it like it is” when she discusses the “wolves” in chapter 12. I was surprised
to see some of my feelings about current “big-time” ministries put on paper.
While the author, a former Christian singer, may have had health related issues
which ended her singing ministry, her work here “sings” to me like one of those
old-time gospel songs. This is also the only book about a “Revelation topic”
that I have ever enjoyed. Great book! Read it!
