I just got through ready Andy Stanley’s ENEMIES OF THE HEART: Breaking Free from the Four Emotions That Control You and all I can say is, “WOW.” I never knew how ignorant about the four destructive emotions (Guilt, Anger, Greed, and Jealousy) and how they wreak havoc on our relationships.
The book is built […]
I just got a reality check by reading David Murrow’s, “Why Men Hate Going To Church.” I originally thought that the book would provide a superficial look at how to attract more men to church. What I did not expect was for Murrow to pain such a graphic picture of not only why men […]
I just got through reading, “Thriving at College,” by Alex Chediak with the subtitle, “Make great friends, keep your faith, and get ready for the real world!” I WISH I had such a book when I went to college! It would’ve saved me a lot of grief. I read this book because […]
Andy Stanley’s, “The GRACE of GOD,” was probably one of the best books I read this year. I’ve been a pastor for 20 years and thought I understood all about grace, but Andy truly showed me how amazing grace is by taking me through the entire Bible showing me God’s grace in […]

James MacDonald’s book, “Always TRUE: God’s 5 Promises When Life Is Hard” is a book forged out of MacDonald’s personal experience. His previous book, “When Life Is Hard,” was dedicated to his mom who had just completed her battle with ALS and passed into Heaven. “Always True,” is largely birthed from MacDonald’s many trials […]
Andy Brainer’s, “An Expose on Teen Sex and Dating: What’s Really Going On an How To Talk about It,” was eye opening. I am a pastor and the father of two teenage girls and the book was extremely valuable both to my personal life as a parent and my ministry.
I […]
I just got through reading, Radical Together, by David Platt which takes off where his earlier book, Radical, leaves off by moving the emphasis from the individual to the church. The book is short compared to Radical, but it makes some good points and gives plenty of examples of […]
