I resisted Nick’s tag a bit, partly because I didn’t want to fall into the stereotypical blog and partly because everyone else’s lists look so erudite compared with mine. But hey, I’ll play the game:
One book that changed your life? {I’ll assume on all of these that the Bible doesn’t count.} He Loves Forever by Tom Olbricht, though it’s more because of the impact that Dr. Olbricht had on my approach to Scripture. The ideas are in the book, but I learned them from him.
One book that you’ve read more than once? Celebration of Discipline by Richard Foster
One book that you’d want on a desert island? An Anthology of English Literature
One book that made you laugh? At Home in Mitford by Jan Karon
One book that made you cry? Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
One book you wish had been written? Everything Jesus Said by Simon Peter, et al
One book you wish had never been written? While some misleading religious books come to mind, I have problems with the idea of needing to silence any expression of ideas. I don’t have anything for this list.
One book you’re currently reading? Juan Antonio Monroy gave me a book he’s written about Frank Pais, an evangelical who was a hero in Castro’s revolution in Cuba. The title is Frank País, Un líder evangélico en la Revolución Cubana
One book you’ve been meaning to read? Jack Reese’s The Body Broken
I’m supposed to tag 5 other bloggers, but I’m doing an intraoffice tag instead. Vince, Steve, Debi, Kay, Lauren, Nic, Courtney, Justin, Skye… you’re it.
