My Take
What fascinates me about Neale Donald Walsch is not the metaphysics but the origin story: a man at rock bottom scribbles angry questions to God and ends up authoring one of the best-selling spiritual series of the era. I tend to be skeptical of channeled wisdom, yet there is undeniable comfort in his core message of self-forgiveness. Whether or not you believe a voice answered him, the transformation of a broken middle-aged man into a global author is itself a kind of proof that reinvention is always possible. That, more than the theology, is why he stays interesting to me.
