Books I Am Enjoying

June 26, 2011

I am enjoying The Gift of Years by Joan Chittister.  If you think you might grow older, I recommend this book.

I have enjoyed all the Robert Tannenbaum books, but Escape was a particularly profound exploration of the question, "If God tells you to kill, should you?  Would you?"  Of course, he explores via fiction, which makes it especially readable. 

Recently I was profoundly affected by the book What If The Church Were Christian? by Phillip Gulley. 

Books by C.J. Box about Joe Pickett, a game warden in Wyoming, raise important questions about "Where do you draw the line?"  Nowhere to Run and Cold Winter both entertained and dug in (for me).
