Book Reivew "When Mockingbirds Sing" by Billy Coffey

I rarely read fiction. But I picked up a book from an author I have never heard of.  This book is great.
In This book, a little girl has a gift of drawing.  in the drawing is picture that comes true.  So to me she has the gift of prophecy.  The girl is asked, 'How did you know?"  She responds that it was not her but a man that no one can see that she calls the 'Rainbow man.'  I understand this to be God in this book.  very few people believe her and what we learn throughout this book is that God is always there whether you can see him or not.
I love that Billy Coffey can write a beautifully written novel and bring truth from it: those are my favorite fiction books.  He has a way of writing that is beautiful and is very descriptive but not too much.  As I was reading this book, i actually saw what was going on in my mind.  That to me is a sign of a great book.

I highly recommend that you pick up a copy of 'When Mockingbirds Sing' by Billy Coffey.  it is a great read.

Chasing Francis: a book review

Hey all, I have just finished a great book by Ian Morgan Cron called, "Chasing Francis."
I read Cron's other book and was pleased to read this one.  I have to admit it is a reprint of his older book from another publisher.
This book is a journey of a pastor from a mega church that is more than burned out.  he has lost his faith in the local church and his faith in God.
As a pastor i have seen this scenario played out in others lives time and again.  even in my own journey of faith and doubt.  what is so fascinating from this book is you get a historical fiction.  you get a man whose journey is the same as St. Francis of Assisi.  What a wonderful trip around the world to find a man losing faith and finding it again by the end.
If you are human and you struggle in the faith  department i suggest you read this book and find your faith in God again.

Great book for men everywhere!!!

I have read "Clean" by Douglas Weiss.  The Subtitle says it all: "A proven plan for men committed to sexual integrity."
I'll be honest, this was a tough book because Weiss tackles a tough subject that many men are unwilling to tackle: sexual integrity.
If men are honest, we all are tempted sexually.  Many men deal with pornography and lust on a daily basis.  This book will help we men deal with this serious issue in a "grace-filled" way.
God wants us to live a life clean of sexual sin.  He wants us to enjoy sex under His authority and in the context of marriage.
This book will help men of all ages and from a faith background or not.  I want to buy this for all the men in my church and go through it together.
The best part of this book is the biblical foundation.  Weiss sites scripture all the way through to prove his point.  this is not just one man's opinion.  This is God's opinion!
Another thing i like is Weiss comes from a expert perspective.  He knows what he is talking about.
I highly recommend this book for you and your church!

Book Review: God's not Dead by Rice Broocks

I love books on apologetics (defending the faith).  This book is probably the best book on apologetics i have ever read.  I would buy this book for a non-believer to read and a believer to study for themselves.
This book uses the usual arguments proving God exists: science, the complexity of the universe, the bible, etc.
I would read this book many times again.  it is informative and entertaining.  Buy it for yourself and a friend.

Book Review: Neighbors and Wise Men by Tony Kriz

Neighbors and Wise Men is a great book about finding God in unexpected places.  Tony Kriz (the author) was unknown to me when i got this book.  but i found out from the cover that He was mentioned in blue like jazz, which i have read and like very much.
This book is not priciples or or facts, it is in story form.  I like that.  i learn from story as all of us do.
I believe some might be offended by this book.  He talks about finding God in the middle of a pub and among muslim people.  i understand.  but i like it because God can show up in our lives no matter where we are.  God doesnt live in a church building, he lives where we go.
We are called to make disciples and most times it will happen in the market place.
this book helps to illustrate how to live that life where God can be found and shared with others.
I highly recommend it for all of you who want to find God in your own story.

Book Review: Grace by Max Lucado

Max Lucado boos are great for inspiration and to feel good.  I recommend his books for anyone.  I have 12 Max Lucado books, so you know that i like his writing.
This book, Grace, is a good book.  Grace is one of those subjects that i read about often.  This book is a little, "Fluffy" to me.  it didnt have any meat to it.  dont get me wrong it was a good book and i will read it again.  I just felt after reading it that i was missing something from Max this book.
This book covers the subject of grace and Lucado writes in a style that keeps you going.  His chapters are rather short, which is good for readers like me.
Pick up this book, go through the provided study guide and grow as a believer.
