Charles Colson, Nancy Pearcey

Tyndale House Publishers, 2004

A Great Worldview Primer for Discipleship
As my title suggests, Colson's book would be a great worldview primer for discipleship purposes. In a day and age where people believe that creation is an accident and God is a non-issue, we have to begin by demonstrating that it is more logical to look to a Creator than to presume that all of creation is a coincidence, what Colson called pre-evangelism. To take it a step further, many people ...

The Earth Shall Weep: A History of Native America

James Wilson

Grove Press, 2000

Excellently Researched and Big-Hearted
If you are searching for a book about Native American history, this is the book for you. James Wilson's research is presented in three digestable sections: Origins, Invasion, and Internal Frontiers, with the largest body of work appearing in the central section. I recently took an 8,000 miles drive around the United States and read this book the entire month as I entered corresponding areas ...

Who Shall Live? (Health, Economics, and Social Choice) (Economic Ideas Leading to the 21st Century, 3)

Victor R. Fuchs

World Scientific Publishing Company, 1998

Should be required reading for all medical students
On reading this book I kept experiencing the urge to wave it in the face of my well-meaning friends and wider acquaintance and force them to read it under duress. Quite simply, it makes perfect sense. Content-wise, I think the review under the hardback edition will fill you in more objectively than I could hope to. What I do want to do is recommend this book to any med students struggling to cope ...

The Light Shall Set You Free

Norma J. Milanovich, Shirley D. McCune

Athena Publishing, 1996

Life Changing Book, A MUST Read!!!
This book does not exist in your local bookstore, so I have probably purchased 5 copies online to share with everyone I know. If you are seeking a higher purpose, the answer to life, and the future of humanity, this book is a must read. I have been unconsciously been lead to this book. Saw an excerpt on the internet, purchased a copy on a whim and it has literally transformed my life. I ...

Ray Gibson, Felicity Everett

Usborne Books, 2002

My 5-year-old LOVES this book!
My daughter received this book (along with I Can Draw Animals also excellent!) for Christmas (which was 2 days before her 5th birthday) and she LOVES it! Very easy directions she can follow all by herself and something she uses over and over again! Great book for little artists!

Julia Spencer-Fleming

St. Martin's Minotaur, 2008

Seriously excellent stuff
It's always a thrill to find a genuinely good writer, and Julia Spencer-Fleming is all of that. The plots are exciting without being unrealistic, the love story is touching, the characters feel like real human beings; there's wit, there's trouble, there's goodness and evil, and it's all told in an intelligent voice that never fails to be interesting. Anybody who likes the work of Carol ...

Rabbi Daniel Lapin

Wiley, 2008

A Treasury of Spiritual Wisdom Related to Wealth
Rabbi Lapin begins by debunking the myths of why Jews are disproportionately successful in business. He then provides a powerful set of principles - the 10 commandments of making money - that can be applied by anyone. What is particularly powerful about the presentation are the spiritual links that Lapin provides from the Torah and the Talmud, as well as a sprinkling of teachings from the ...

How Then, Shall We Live?: Four Simple Questions That Reveal the Beauty and Meaning of Our Lives

5 reviews
Wayne Muller

Bantam, 1997

Beautiful, Poetic, Wise
Wayne Muller has a deeply caring soul and in this book evidences a lyrical pen. While no book can conclusively answer the question "How, Then, Shall We Live?" this book is a wonderfully readable and gentle, compassionate and evocative, exploration of some of life's ultimate issues. Much of the book gains its power from stories of people facing death in heartbreaking yet courageous and ...

The Wolf Shall Dwell With the Lamb: A Spirituality for Leadership in a Multicultural Community

Eric H. F. Law

Chalice Press, 1993

Articulates the reality well
After having worked for 7 years in a foreign country and culture, I experienced a lot of frustration as I met the culture. Law's book is one of the best I've found in helping me see (albeit in hindsight) what was going on. His distinctions were helpful. I recommend this book for people working (or about to work) in a multi-cultural setting. He gives practical suggestions and some helpful ...

Dave Eggers

Vintage, 2003

Like My Mind on Paper
I just finished the book for the second time. It is probably not the greatest book that I have ever read, but it is definitely my favorite. And that is what matters. I could read nothing but this book, over and over, for the rest of my life. I would be completely satisfied in doing so. Eggers has this way of writing that just perfectly fits within my brain. With other authors, it never feels ...

They Shall Expel Demons: What You Need to Know about Demons - Your Invisible Enemies

36 reviews
Derek Prince

Chosen, 1998

Excellent!!
I have read numerous Derek Prince books and this one I highly recommend. He gives real life examples of dealing with demonic forces and a step-by-step process on how to combat these forces. This is a must have in your book collection.

He Shall Thunder in the Sky

Elizabeth Peters

Avon, 2001

Best So Far!
This Amelia Peabody book was the best (and most satisfactory) so far! Usually, I find I get annoyed with the switching of Amelia/Emerson storyline and Ramses/Nefret storyline, however in this book it was a perfect blend. The relationship between Ramses and Nefret is wonderful, if slightly awkward (which, considering "Falcon at the Portal," is to be expected). Also, this book included many on ...

Derrick Jensen

PM Press, 2008

Want to do more than voting and recycling?
I was not surprised to see that Derrick Jensen would be a great interviewer, He also picked a great bunch of people to interview. Thier personal beliefs and the way the express them with word and actions really made me look at myself and wonder what else I can do.

As Long as the Grass Shall Grow and Rivers Flow: A History of Native Americans

2 reviews
Clifford E. Trafzer

Wadsworth Publishing, 1999

Best Native American History Text Ever
This is the best American Indian textbook on the market today. Trafzer not only writes in a clear and compelling manner, he also presents the incredible complex histories of Indian societies in a clear fashion. He has an eye for details, which he connects in a fine intellectual fashion to the greater, overarching historical themes. This is also the ONLY Native American history text that tells ...

All Shall Be Well; And All Shall Be Well; And All Manner of Things Shall Be Well: A Novel

9 reviews
Tod Wodicka

Pantheon, 2008

Surprisingly Fascinating!
The uniqueness of the characters and plot of this book make it unique and intriguing, but Mr. Wodicka's prose made it impossible for me to put this book down unread. Born an orphan with a disfigured nose and raised by nuns, Burt's life is indeed tragic all the way around, since his wife dies, his two kids disown him, and he is an alcholic who lives, breathes, and re-enacts the middle ages ...

Caleb Johnson

Xlibris Corporation, 2007

A must read for any descendant
Caleb Johnson put together a very engaging and well sourced book about the life of someone most have never heard of, but they probably should have. The more bits and pieces I've heard about Stephen Hopkins's life over the last 10 years, the more intrigued I've been. It is amazing what can be pieced together 400 years after the fact, even in the face of common misconceptions about his origins. ...

I Shall Destroy All The Civilized Planets!

Fletcher Hanks

Fantagraphics Books, 2007

Twisted and strange, but in a good way
If you enjoy strange and forbidden comics like The Monster of Frankenstein then Mr. Hank's odd 4-color creations will not disappoint you. The comics are almost as odd as the artist himself!

Bodie Thoene, Brock Thoene

Tyndale House Publishers, 2006

Excellent book and series
This book/series, as are all the Thoene books, is a wonderful story about post WWI. The families and their daily living is written as if you were there. You become so involved in this book, that I wanted to read it in a day! The focus of the daily life in middle America post WWI is God centered. Wonderful Story!
