The Search for God and Guinness (Reviewed 10/28/2009)I don't like beer. I really don't like beer. I don't like the taste of it, I don't like the smell of it, I don't like its ever present advertising and, most of all, I loathe what the abuse of beer has regularly offered up to me...Beer is a barracks hallway full of vomit on a Saturday morning at Ft. ...

The Noticer (Reviewed 10/1/2009)After I finished my sermon work and all the other end of the week stuff required of any pastor, I read a strange little book called The Noticer by Andy Andrews. It was the perfect book to read on a rainy, fall day with a couple hours to spare.It is a book about perspective.I'm not exactly sure what ...

Fearless (Reviewed 9/8/2009)I am reading constantly. I am not really content unless I'm reading. As a pastor and happy bookworm, reading is a blessing I believe I have to offer the busy people around me. Some of this reading is profitable and some less so.But in all the reading I do, there is one sure and certain way to tell ...

I'll Make You An Offer You Can't Refuse (Reviewed 8/10/2009)This is truly an odd book. To be completely honest, I'm not sure what I think of it. I've been stupidly busy with my doctoral reading and so haven't had much of a chance to read anything else. But I promised the Thomas Nelson people I would read and review the book, so I guess I better get something ...

Christianity Today Study Series: Faith & Pop Culture (Reviewed 5/30/2009)What is the value of the arts? How much should television be allowed to shape our thinking or drive our decisions? How much does it? Do we Christians spend too much time immersed in popular culture or entirely too little?I have always enjoying making connections between popular culture and the Christian ...

The Principle of the Path (Reviewed 5/4/2009)What a great read! This book is a very practical, no nonsense look at the lives we choose for ourselves. Andy Stanley says where we end up in life is mostly a reflection of the road we choose to get there. While there are all sorts of caveats that could be inserted into the conversation, for the most ...

The Hole in Our Gospel (Reviewed 4/8/2009)This is an excellent textbook in social concern for the Christian. Richard Stearns, President of World Vision, makes a very thorough argument for the necessity of Christian concern for "the least of these" around the world. He begins personally, discussing his own calling from a lucrative position as ...

Word of Promise Next Generation New Testament MP3 Set (Reviewed 3/12/2009)I really like the idea of audio Bibles. I like having the ability to put a CD in the car radio and listen to the Bible as I drive down the road. I used to have a complete set of NIV disks and a set of NLT disks, but both of them sat mostly untouched in the trunk go bag of my car. I eventually felt so ...

Christianity in Crisis: The 21st Century (Reviewed 2/22/2009)This is an unpleasant book to read. This was probably a very unpleasant book to write. And yet, as much as it pains me to admit, this is book well worth reading. In some Christian circles, this book should probably be required reading! Hank Hanegraff walks through almost all the most popular "name it ...
