Gods Within by Michael Perry is a thoughtful and well-researched examination of the New Age movement through the lens of Christian theology and discernment. Rather than dismissing New Age beliefs outright, Perry carefully explores a wide range of topics—such as astrology, crystals, reincarnation, meditation, channeling, and holistic healing—and compares them with Christian doctrine. The book is designed to help readers understand why New Age spirituality appeals to so many, and to offer a Christian framework for evaluating spiritual experiences and seeking truth in today’s diverse religious landscape.
