Pretty cool to see how the earliest Christians defined and organized their worship according to Scripture.

Maybe I wasn't in the right frame of mind for this. The first 1/3 was promising, but it wandered after that. Perhaps it is better read in small portions from the porch of a mtn. cabin or a quiet trail somewhere. Nevertheless, it just didn't do it ...more

The Practice of Piety by Hambrick Stowe Charles E
My rating:
didn't like it it was ok liked it really liked it it was amazing
add to my books
The title may not do any thing for you, but the book turns out to be a great read and a valuable insight into Puritan life. One glimpses a way of life far different from the fictional caricatures we often think of when the word "Puritan" is uttered....more

Life by Keith Richards
Life
by Keith Richards
read in November, 2011
My rating:
didn't like it it was ok liked it really liked it it was amazing
add to my books
An engaging mix of the delightful (Keith's fascination with Open G) and the depraved (page after page of heroine addiction). As much as I love good ole' rock n' roll, I have yet to read a rock biography that makes me say, "Hey, I wanna do that." It...more

Forgotten God by Francis Chan
My rating:

I "read" this one on my ipod during a few morning walks. I probably missed a few things here and there, but overall I was refreshed with Chan's perspective. He encourages us to reflect on the biblical nature of the Holy Spirit without the extremes ...more

Bonhoeffer by Eric Metaxas
My rating:

Outstanding blend of history, biography, and intrigue. Metaxas does a great job of presenting Bonhoeffer's theology for broad spectrum of readers, meaning that this book will appeal to Christians and non-Christians alike. Furthermore, Metaxas provi...more

The Diaries of Adam and Eve. ILLUSTRATED. by Mark Twain
My rating:
didn't like it it was ok liked it really liked it it was amazing
add to my books
It was hard for me to get past some of the liberties Mr. Twain took in what is otherwise a wry take on the relationships between man/woman. But I'm a pastor, so what do you expect? My favorite passage dealt with Abel's death-- very poignant.

The Life and Diary of David Brainerd by Jonathan Edwards
My rating:
didn't like it it was ok liked it really liked it it was amazing
add to my books
David Brainerd was so well thought of in the example of his short life that many folks named their sons after him. Severla prominent missionaries went into the field with only 2 books in hand: the Holy Bible and the Life and Diary of David Brainerd....more
