Books, Literature & Links
When I come across something that I feel will enhance a seeker or believer's experience with learning about or becoming closer to God and Christ, I review it and/or place a link on this page.

The Shack
by William Paul Young
This one has been on my site for a while, and it's going to stay. That's how much I like this one.
Believer or not, this book is a terrific read, shattering stereotypes and religious dogma. A relatively quick read, it is very satisfying to the hungry reader’s appetite.
Young has a method of making you feel things from a fresh perspective. He does so via taking your box of ingrained pictures of God, picking it up, turning it over, and shaking out the contents all over your spiritual bed. He spends the rest of the book putting it all back into your picture box, completely reshaping the visage of God that you started out with.
Splendid, front to back. Suggestion? Save yourself the trip and buy the two or three extra copies that you will wind up getting for someone you love anyway.
Have you heard of Join the Journey? It’s a great method of getting into the Bible and having others help you understand it.
Take a year-long trip through the Old or New Testament. Delve into a certain book of the Bible.
We're about to get starting on another round of entries for January 2010. We begin writing them in the fall of 2009. I'm excited about doing this again and I urge youto sign up for the daily emails with entries.
