my favorite book in a long time: Sinners in the hands of a loving God, by brian zahnd

The Gospel is the most powerful truth we have.  We are all sinners that have ran into the mercy of God.  I picked up the book 'Sinners in the Hand of a loving God'  by Brian Zahnd and it was a great reminder of how much God loves us.  The author remembers the famous sermon by Johnathan Edwards titled 'Sinners in the hands of an angry God' and wanted to remind us that that is not true.  the gospel is good news for sinners.  we run to him for grace, mercy, and love.
I highly recommend Sinners in the hands of a loving God by Brian Zahnd.

Great collection of sermons from Eugene Peterson

Eugene Peterson's The Message Paraphrase of the bible taught me to love reading the word of God.  So when I got the oppotunity to read this new book i did.  While the title As Kingfishers catch fire doesnt catch the eye, what follows in the pages after do.  Peterson organizes the sermons from Genesis to revelation in order...I like that.  If you want to gleam some wisdom from one of America's greatest pastors, look no further than As Kingfishers Catch Fire.  i highly recommend it to anyone who wants to learn about the truths found in the bible and how to apply it to your life right now.

book review: Chazown by Craig Groeschel

I love this book.  I have read it before and had the privilege of reading the updated and expanded version.  The question that we all ask is "What on earth am I here for?"  This book helps in the quest to discover how God has wired us and what God has created us to do.  As you read the book, Chazown (which is Hebrew for Vision by the way), you will discover short chapters that will help peel the layers of the onion of your life and what you discover is the true you; who you were created to be.
I highly recommend this book if you want to live a life the honors God, live the life you were meant to life, and impact the world around you.  Craig Groeschel has written an easy book to answer the question, "What on earth am I here for?"

You need to read the book Seven Mile Miracle by Steven Furtick

I watch every sermon that Steven Furtick preaches and read every book, he writes.  So it is no suprise that I picked up Steven Furtick latest book: "Seven-Mile Miracle."  Let me get to the point: Read this book and buy one for all your friends.  What, you have no friends???  Well  buy them for your enemies and random people.
This book takes the reader through a journey through the last 7 words of Jesus.  Jesus spoke while on the cross and if you take the words and put them together, you get a journey on the life of a follower of Jesus Christ.  Furtick talks about salvation, relationship, life problems, questions about God,victory and more.  I dont only recommend Seven-Mile Miracle, i challenge you to buy it on Amazon, or better yet, your local book store.

Another great book on the christian life!

Henri Nouwen was a great priest who most people have heard about or read some of his books.  I have read quiet a bit of his books and every time i read his books, my life is forever improved.  If you ever wanted to sit down and listen to Henri Nouwen talk about biblical topics and topics that relate to real life, "Love, Henri" is your book.  These are actual letters he wrote over his life to people.  in these letters you will find nuggets of wisdom and truth.  I highly recommend this book to you if you desire to grow in Christ!
