The Game of Life and How to Play It

September 15, 2009
Shinn, who died in 1940, was an important American spiritual teacher and lecturer in the early 20th century. She self-published "The Game of Life" and went on to write three more books, all contained here. Shinn writes in the style of a preacher, quoting extensively from the King James Version of the Bible. In her colloquial manner, she discusses what is now called "attraction theory" and provides meditations on such goals as good health and a successful job interview, as well as meditations on prosperity, marriage, and faith. Best for Christian Bible study groups and self-help completists.
