Otoharo!
Sharon, I first found Urantia in 74 while on a tour. I stayed with a cousin for a week. while she was at work, I noticed it in her book shelves and read a particular story in it. Several months later, I lived a month with a family waiting for a job to be open. They had this book. To fill my time, I read it from cover to cover. It was the first book I ever read that gave a an inkling of who I am. The greatest struggle was the preface that gives the word useage information. When you have this clear enough, just start reading. In Texas, and in New MExico in the 80's, there was a Urantia Readers group wherever I lived. We met weekly and read round the circle.
Its limitation is that is is solely about the physical worlds. The only human author is the Mighty Messenger.
No other book gave me as much as this one for many years.
