Christy Miller #1-4 by Robin Jones Gunn

I started reading these again... they're so quick... and there's just something about the way it gives me a little bit of romance.

Practicing the Presence of God by Brother Lawrence

The book that has influenced my thinking most this year. What he has to say is great, and as I practice it, the true transformation is occurring... God is present, but I'm learning to be present too.

The Shack and Sacred Rhythms

William P. Young is a vivid, captivating storyteller. And this story tells of God's love and sovereignty. But I couldn't take another chapter of God speaking chapters and chapters... that doesn't even happen very often in the Bible. And I think Young could get his point across better with a STORY.


Ruth Haley Barton has experienced the stuff she's talked about; she's a reliable source. And I learned these concepts well when we discussed them during the Prayer Track at Chapter Camp last summer. Maybe that's why I'm ready to practice and quit reading about it...

Whispers by Robin Jones Gunn

Sometimes I just like to read something predictable, that lets me feel like a fast reader, and does something to restore a small sense of hope that men like Gordon do exist.

Peter Pan by J.M. Barrie

Where Angels Fear to Tread by EM Forster

This book made more sense when I found out that Alexander Pope, British poet from the 18th century, wrote a line in Essay on Criticism that says "For fools rush in where angels fear to tread."

Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe
