"Quivering on the Brink" is a condensed and easy way to learn the basic teachings of "The Urantia Book" (UB). It took 25 years to develop "Quivering on the Brink" but it delivers:*The Author's Notes give some personal insights not available elsewhere. Mary Livingston did not want to influence or interpret the UB; her goal was to present the basic concepts in a clear and easy to read format. The Author's Notes explains why and how this was accomplished. Best of all, you do not have to believe everything---there are no penalties, punishments, or withheld blessings for not believing all or part of the concepts or teachings presented. "The Urantia Book" is a 'personal religion' of the Spirit, grounded in love.*Over a million words of the UB are condensed into less than 70,000 words.*You will find pronunciations as you read, as well as a Glossary, Resources, and an Index.*There are 15 Charts and Tables, and 10 Suggested Reading boxes that all improve clarity.*Part One covers Personalities, Organization, and Eternal Life---a who's who in Creation, how we are administered to, and our destiny in detail. The opening chapter reveals the fragment of God that dwells within and guides each morally conscious person; Part One closes with the chapter on Sonship (and daughter-ship) with God and what that means.*Part Two is The Unfolding of Events that Shaped Our World---a time-line of our evolution, all five epochal revelations, and known celestial activities intertwined. Of the 23 chapters in Part Two, seven feature the Fourth Epochal Revelation---the bestowal of Jesus. "The Urantia Book" devotes about a third of its book to the chronological life and teachings of Jesus with tremendous details. It clarifies who he was before his bestowal, who he is now, and what he is doing!"Quivering on the Brink" is a very satisfying appetizer with all the basic nutrients to feed your soul and answers many of life's questions. It will also give you a clear-cut indication as to whether or not you want to learn more by reading the magnificent Urantia Book.
