Welcome to Elliot’s Blog, a site of my own personal book reviews covering a whole slew of topics from a Christian perspective. I recently completed my 800th book review and continue to enjoy the work. Some of these books I truly enjoyed, while others I thought were pretty worthless. I think you’ll readily see the difference as you read.
Feel free to peruse the categories listed to the right, check the archives, or perform a search. If you’d like to comment on or question anything in a particular post, please do.
I try to write with the constant knowledge that my words must glorify Christ, for I openly represent Him, even here online. If you find that I’m failing in this regard, by all means, let me know.
E.T.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Do you have recommendations for Godly books?
You can peruse my categories list to the left. Search for “Christian living” or perhaps “Theology” categories and you should see a collection of review that I’d probably recommend.
Hi Elliot,
I simply want to thank you for the work you’ve done and shared so freely! God bless you!
Much appreciated!
Hallo! stumbled upon your site while searching for a book cover! It’s so cool that you have been reviewing books with such consistency! I am really curious if you may be interested to review my books! Local authors of spiritual writing are few, and it’s hard for me to find reviewers. Just a thought. Will be fun digging around in among your 600 reviews!
I’d be interested in trying one. Just so you know beforehand, I’m a strong biblicist with conservative convictions and will always comment negatively on things that I believe disagree with the Bible. So if you’re still willing 🙂
Hello Elliot,
Thank you for your review of James Allen’s book.
Much appreciated.
Hi Elliot! just checking how is it going with your thoughts about Today Matters? You were planning your growth plan..
Just bought it, not received yet.
I listened it and wanted to see those decisions in written. Brilliant review!
Andy, thanks! (I”ll be moving your comment to the Today Matters page, FYI). I kept up with the program for about 18 months and really, really enjoyed it. I ended up creating my own system of six questions, which served me much better than following 12. I recorded everything in my daily OneNote journal, but for the life of me, I can’t find my records of those days! I journaled 2017-2018 digitally, and I CANNOT find those notes. Really kind of irritates me 🙂 The reason I stepped away from it was a huge life-change, when I quit my job and started a company. At that point, I got into another system called Getting Things Done. After reviewing this post, however, I think I might get back to Today Matters, as it much more emphasizes the mental and spiritual aspects of life.
Elliot, for citation purposes, what is your last name?
Templeton. Out of curiosity, which post are you citing?
Hi, Elliot. I happened upon your blog whilst looking for information on Mitsu Yamamoto, and ended up reading a half-dozen or so of your reviews before realizing it was past my bedtime. Just wanted to tell you how much I enjoy your writing. I’ll be back for more after some beauty sleep.
Hey thanks for the encouraging words 🙂
