2 chairs, by Bob Beaudine is not exactly a self-help book that Bob is famous for, it is a book about spirituality and belief. In 2 Chairs, Bob tells the reader to connect with God, and find the answers to their questions.
2 Chairs
Bobs mother once told him to set up two chairs every morning, one for himself and one for God. She told him to try connecting with God and find his answers. So, each day he does that, and hopes that God will show up.
He encourages the reader to do the same, saying that though the chances are low, He might show up.
3 Questions
Through the book Bob gives out three questions and tells the reader to ask God, when He shows up:
Does He know your situation?
Is it too hard for Him to handle?,
Does He have a good plan for you?
He has tried to indirectly answer the questions with his stories and tells the reader to have faith. He says that when God will show up, He will not only answer all your questions, but He will make changes in your life. He will fix everything and show you the fatherly love He has for His children.
The Content
The length of the book is 200 pages and the content runs 170 pages. The book is not long but feels like a long read, since there is little content, and a lot of fluff words to meet the word count. The content of the read is good, there are no second thoughts about it, but the same content is repeated or the chapter has random irrelevant stories, forced to sound relevant.
Conclusion
2 Chairs is a book meant for the believers and those who seek help. Though it is a book about God, one could read it as a guide to life, things you need to know about yourself, and the things the universe has planned for you. The pace of the read is, however, slow and could be a turn off for a lot of readers.
