'Another View' Explains a Religious Revelation to a Young Dutch Boy Image Open-minded Christians and anyone with a belief in Scripture will be intrigued by a more recent work published in 1955 meant to supplement the Bible's teachings in more depth. According to the Urantia Foundation, the said work "builds upon the religious heritages of the past and present, encouraging a personal, living religious faith."

Member of The Urantia Book Fellowship and seasoned author Nicholas P. Snoek released his fourth book on this topic in the hopes to explain this second work of scripture in a more user-friendly way.

Set for a new marketing campaign, "Another View" (published by Xlibris in November 2013) tells of a young Dutch boy as he becomes aware of an invisible friend who helps him explore religion and its background. The fictional setting provides a narrative structure to discuss this complex philosophical and theological concept.

The book is not an exercise of exegesis but a source material is never treated lightly. Only the fictional setting has a patina of entertainment and some grounding in the world of solids. To wit, there are no footnotes - scholarship is not intrusive, but it does build the book. For more details, please visit https://www.amazon.com/Another-View-Nicholas-P-Snoek/dp/1493110276.
