BOOK BLURB:
“I’ve spent my life helping people to see, both as a licensed optometrist and also as an ordained minister,” said author Rev. Dr. Leonidas Johnson. “Vision, what is it? I discovered that physical vision is very similar to spiritual vision and the mind is the bridge between the two.”
In Rev. Dr. Johnson’s book, readers will experience a concept called learning by comparison. Comparing physical vision with spiritual vision will help the readers see themselves and the world God created in a whole new light. Readers will see the world God created from a physical, mental, and spiritual vantage point that will enrich their lives, Rev. Dr. Johnson says. These vantage points help build a foundation for developing a decision-making strategy that is both liberating and biblically sound.
Rev. Dr. Johnson went on to say “The title of my book – – Phenomenal Vision: Eyesight To Life Sight – – came after contemplating the impact vision has on one’s life, not just physical but eternal. It leans into the concept of one’s worldview. A proper view of oneself and the world can deeply impact the outcome of one’s life. Jesus said I come that might have life and have it more abundantly. How can you see physical beauty if you are physically blind? Conversely, how can you have an abundant life if you are spiritually blind? Vision should never be taken for granted and vision that incorporates physical, mental and spiritual vantage points is not ordinary but phenomenal and lead to a phenomenal life.”
I just read Phenomenal Vision Eyesight to Life Sight by Rev. Dr. Leonidas A. Johnson. It is a delightful book written thoughtfully. He linked the physical aspects of vision with the metaphysical aspects of vision in a creative way. I share a common perspective as Rev. Dr. Johnson because I am also an Optometrist and a Christian minister. He has captured both the physical science of vision and the metaphysical science of vision. I am confident that there will be “aha moments” for readers who may not have a foot in either area.
This author so wonderfully explained the spiritual nature of vision. His linking of disorders or disease to both the physical and spiritual makes it easy for the reader to “get it.” His use of graphs, diagrams, pictures, and charts is also very creative. Often books are “dumbed down” and don’t trust the intellect of the reader. This book soars in bringing light to something that has often been opaque. This book is a must-read. It will be a blessing for those who desire to have a more in-depth understanding of the link between the physical and metaphysical aspects of life.

"The human soul consists of our Emotions, Volition, and Mind...The ability to view and understand these two important factors - our emotions and a logical mind - in the decion-making process is a fundamental step in the development of phenomenal life sight vision." - page 53
"In summary, our volition is the emotional and mental process by which we, as individuals, decide on and commit to a specific course of action." - page 56
