Kabul 24 (Reviewed 10/22/2009)This post is part of Thomas Nelson’s Book Review program. Have a blog? Want free books? Check this out. Kabul 24 is a stunning story that probably deserves better writing. I can’t imagine how difficult it would be to write such a story. The authors did a masterful job weaving spiritual implications with political ones, and drawing ...

Notes From The Tilt-A-Whirl (Reviewed 7/23/2009)I’m not sure where to begin with this one, or how to communicate everything I’d like to without re-typing the entire text here.

Renown photographer, Ken Duncan, clings to scripture to help him re-trace ...

This Is Your Brain On Joy (Reviewed 3/6/2009)I was in the mood for a free book a couple weeks ago, so I logged in to Thomas Nelson. The selection was uninspiring, but This Is Your Brain on Joy sounded mildly interesting so I signed up for it. What a pleasant surprise of a book! I really enjoyed this one. The evening that I ...

For The Tough Times (Reviewed 1/28/2009)I’ve never read anything by Max Lucado. I recognized the name on the book because you just can’t be a Christian for very long in this country and not see or hear it scores of times. I’ve seen dozens of his small, hard cover books but never heard anything extraordinary or controversial about Max Lucado ...
