Written very much in the style of a Rob Bell book - like Nooma or Velvet Elvis - with short sentences and paragraphs that read more like a prose poem or speaker notes in a casual, sans serif, font. This book is not really for people who don't believe ...more | |

A history of "What is a pastor for?" told through a series of famous pastors - Augustine, Jonathan Edwards, and Rick Warren among them. This book made a lot about my own ten years of parish ministry make sense in a way it didn't before. ...more | |

“Psalm 23 There is no obvious reason for what the psalmist receives. The psalmist lists no accomplishments or credits.
