After reading The Gospel Comes with a House Key, I wanted to read another book from Rosaria Butterfield. She writes so well, and I know I can learn a lot from her. So, I picked up her first book The Secret Thoughts of an Unlikely Convert (STUC). STUC is Rosaria’s conversion story. It’s her journey…
The Prodigal Prophet
I recently read @timkellernyc’s most current release The Prodigal Prophet. Keller has preached through Jonah several times through his life; however, he said he wrote it, because his wife wanted him to! That was a great idea! There are 12 chapters: 9 chapters on exposition and the last 3 chapters applying it to the life of…
Letters to the Church
Back when I got more serious about my Christian faith, I happened upon Francis Chan and started listening to his sermons. I had at least 90 downloaded and I listened to all of them. I really enjoyed Chan’s passion for Jesus and his willingness to stick to Scripture and challenge the status quo. In Letters…
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
I am back with another review! Sorry for my hiatus. I am coming back with book four of my Harry Potter reread. If you have read the Harry Potter series, you know that Goblet of Fire is when the story really gets going. The previous books are great! However, Goblet of Fire brings a seriousness…
Faith Among the Faithless
Next book that I am reviewing is Faith Among the Faithless by @mikedcosper. I have not read any of his previous books, but I have heard good things. I appreciate his creativeness and the high quality of the work that he does. Faith Among the Faithless is basically a re-telling of the book of Esther….
Women of the Word
Women of the Word by @jenwilkin was actually a book that was given to my wife, Hayley, as a gift. I have heard a lot of great things about it recently, so I picked it up and gave it a read. Since this is not my first time reading a book by Wilkin, I knew…
Hope in the Dark
This book crossed my path several times recently, so I decided I needed to check it out. Hope in the Dark by Craig Groeschel is a book aimed at people who are in need of answers. Craig is a pastor of a charismatic megachurch Life.Church, which is a multi-site church with locations in ten states….
Humble Roots
Humble Roots came as a recommendation from @jenwilkin in my review of her book last month, and it did not disappoint! As my wife I am sure would tell you, I could always use a dose of humility. Humble Roots was more than just a book on humility though. It was a book on finding…
Outliers
Many years ago, when I was an aspiring reader more than an actual reader, I picked up Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell. I attempted, but for whatever reason, I failed to finish. I have always remembered it positively though. Recently, it was recommended by a friend, so I decided that it was time that I finished…
Othello
A few months ago, I listened to an audiobook on eloquence. Throughout the book, author routinely mentioned the superior writing style of William Shakespeare. Having heard this before, I knew I had to make a foray into the world of Shakespeare. Now, I am not familiar with most of his plays. I get the idea…
