What Readers Have Said
Reviews for What the Single Eye Sees
“What the Single Eye Sees” is a book that inspires hope for those that are looking for it. I don’t normally read this genre of books, but a family member recommended it to me after seeing it on TV. I like how each chapter addresses a different topic so I could go straight to the ones that interested me the most. For those looking for an uplifting, spiritual read, you will like this book. Joseph Q Jarvis did a great job at delivering those very things.
“A thought-provoking, inspiring book! Brother Jarvis’s suggestion that our faith in God represents our love of God made me think differently about both concepts. And the idea that our craving for things spiritual is due to leaving God’s presence resonated with me – and speaks to why we can’t seem to make ourselves comfortable on Earth. When we find ourselves longing for home, we can embrace His love by choosing to see, feel, and prize life in a way that our eye becomes singly focused on His glory.”
I have spent a delightful week reading and pondering Dr Jarvis' book. His skillful use of scripture, testimony and personal vignette resonated with my heart. His words awaken joy for things present and a determination to embrace faith, hope, and charity.
The book provided wonderful insight into the aspects of building Discipleship especially through his major topics--Faith, Hope and Charity. I loved that he made his points primarily by giving the reader actual scriptures from the Bible, Book of Mormon and the Doctrine & Covenants. Dr. Jarvis's personal insight and experiences added a wonderful dimension as well and I feel strongly that his writings have strengthened my commitment to draw ever closer to my Savior.
"What the Single Eye Sees" is a truly wonderful book for people to read that are looking for Spiritual nourishment. I especially enjoyed how there was an entire chapter dedicated to Faith, one to Hope, and one to charity. Dr Jarvis's perspective and description of these key Christian Concepts, along with the scriptures he used, opened my eyes to more ways I can fully Implement these into my life. I very recently experienced dangerous medical conditions that have continued to plague me. This book truly gave me New Hope and a way to try to fulfill the goals I have left in this life. I may be old, but not so old that I can't learn new tricks. I recommend this book for anyone who needs an emotional or spiritual lift, including young people. Some really great stories in there that they can identify with.
In this rich and readable text, Joseph Jarvis delves into the role that faith and hope play in the reader's view of Jesus Christ and His atoning sacrifice. While the book is based in philosophies and teachings of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the principles taught here are generalizable to every Christian belief or faith. When we study scripture with a true desire to know and understand the mysteries of God and Jesus Christ, new horizons open to us and confirm our faith from a perspective we might not have considered before. Jarvis's perspective of these truths helped me to "see" things in a light that I had not considered in my 70 years of life and study of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. A truly remarkable work of research and explaining the gospel in plain English that should be both reaffirming of one's faith or helpful in building a sound foundation of gospel knowledge."
