Learning to Sing: An Inspirational memoir

Clay Aiken
Word Books, 2004
Incredible and Inspiring!
This book is truly a masterpiece! I read this book because I am a Clay Aiken fan, and I thought, 'Hey, a book by Clay Aiken, this should be cool.' I would recommend this book for anyone! Even if you aren't a fan of Clay, this is still an inspiring book. Let's just say: I laughed, I cried, it moved me!" I'm ordering the book and the audio cds. This is one of those books that you read front to ...
Disciplines for the inner life

Bob Benson
Word Books, 1985
By far the best devotional that I have ever read.
There are so many choices confronting anyone looking for a half decent devotional guide today. This is the only one I have read that I cannot imagine anyone being disappointed with. I would recomend trying to get a hold of the leather bound edition from 1985 even though it will be a bit spendy. The reason that I recommend that edition is because it is quite a bit sturdier and it will take you ...
Living Beyond the Limits

Franklin Graham
Word Books, 1992
Excellent, Inspiring
I really liked this book. It's interesting to see what went on in his life. It's also very nice to see how God worked through his life and the lives of the people he knew. He shows what it looks like when you are living the life God would have you live. It's very inspiring.
The chataine's guardian: A novel

Robin Hardy
Word Books, 1984
The greatest Christian author of all time!
I first picked up this book over 20 years ago, when I was a teenager. I love the time period of a medieval romance. Robin Hardy is an awesome author, who doesn't seem to use the same "cookie cutter" mold that a lot of Christian romance novelists use, the same predictable story lines and outcomes. The story is compelling and she quickly draws you into her story. I also equally enjoyed the ...

Word Books, 1983
Awesome, Wonderful, Insightful, Useful
If you have ever wondered what it truly means to follow Jesus, or if you have ever wondered "What Would Jesus Do?" then this book is a must read. Written in plain language, this is an easy read. I found it to be an absolute joy to read it and gained some interesting insights in to the style of our Lord and Savior. Truly a delightful, useful book, I recomend it to everyone.
Devastation on the Delaware: Stories and Images of the Deadly Flood of 1955
9 reviews
Mary A. Shafer
Word Forge Books, 2005
An Amazing Account of the '55 Flood
Mary Shafer's book Devastation on the Delaware is the amazing result of years of research and emotional commitment. Written to commemorate the August, 1955, Delaware River Valley Flood, the book takes the reader on a "roller-coaster ride" through those days of death and "devastation." Ms. Shafer describes in detail the Flood as experienced in all the areas of the Delaware Valley during August ...
China Cry: The Nora Lam Story
7 reviews
Nora Lam
Word Books, 1980
Most inspiring Christian story I ever read
I received this book into my collection when my father passed away a few months ago. A few days ago I picked it up and decided to read it. Am I glad I did. It's falling apart now, but I plan to use some hot glue to hold the pages in the binding so I can read it again later. This book can give a person a lot of insight into the workings of God in our world today. People who think God is dead ...
The Body: Being Light in Darkness
7 reviews
Charles W Colson
Word Books, 1993
A convicting work
I came upon Charles Colson's book The Body by accident. I have never considered myself much of a theologian, but I was a person who was content with my Christianity. After reading this amazing book, I have seen the true purpose of Christianity in the world, and I know just how poor of an example of Jesus I actually am. This book will open the eyes of anyone who is longing for the answer of ...
Healing the Masculine Soul: An Affirming Message for Men and the Women Who Love Them
8 reviews
Gordon Dalbey
Word Books, 1988
Seven stars *******!
Magnificent! After reading it, manliness appears as similar to the sun: joyful, strong, warm, bright, direct, straight-forward, generous, elevated, life-bringing, pure, affirming and defining of itself and of its surrounding. A laser operation at inferiority complexes as well as pride; at aggressivity and weakness; at spite and lily-liveredness; at sex-centredness and genderlessness. Very deep ...
Living on the ragged edge: Coming to terms with reality
8 reviews
Charles R Swindoll
Word Books, 1985
One of Swindoll's Best!
While many Christian books encourage thoughts about God's love and kindness, it's also good to see life as it really is in this world. Swindoll pulls no punches as he describes the emptiness of living to please self instead of God. Among the many excellent points Swindoll covers are: 1. People focus on the external appearances while God focuses on the heart. 2. God can work through you in ...
Your personality tree: Discover the real you by uncovering the roots of---
7 reviews
Florence Littauer
Word Books, 1986
Should be required reading for everyone!
I can not say enough wonderful things about this book. Littauer's Personality Plus, the predecessor to this book was informative, but this one really dives into the personalities in depth as they relate to our tempermental make-up and family history. She also adds a deeper spiritual element to her work, which challenges the reader even further. I can't imagine a better tool for finding out why ...

Carole C. Carlson
Word Books Inc., 1983
Reading and applying these principles will change your life!
I have read this book a couple of times as well as listened to his Dynamic Living series of cassettes. Say Yes to Your Potential can be a real life-changer if you apply the principles. Many authors write things that they don't really live in their own lives, but Skip Ross is the person he challenges us all to be. Both of my sons have attended his summer camp for young people several times ...
Improving Your Serve ~ The Art of Unselfish Living

Charles R. Swindoll
Key-Word Books
, 1981
Has been improved
Let me begin by saying that this book has truly shown me the inside of my heart. Before reading Improving Your Serve,by Charles Swindoll, my "serve" was more for me than it was for God or for anyone else. I had considered myself to be loving and caring of others, but after reading this book I realized how much more I could be doing. I love the many stories that are put together to teach lessons ...
