Featured What books will you start 2016 with?

Should be required secondary-school reading.

 

First book to read this new year is Kingdom Come by Sam Storm. My husband and I will continue on with Grudem's systematic theology. I don't know what else I read but I'll find something after I finish Kingdom Come.

 

Highly effective in what way?

 

A simpleton living in a small town and working as a fry cook at a roadside diner is a psychic, can see dead people and evil spirits, and tries to warn the townspeople of an awful mass murder about to unfold. That was the first book anyway...

Well I spend most of my time writing them than reading new ones. Right now though teaching through 12 Extraordinary Women by John MacArthur for Sunday School. Now one that can be read and many who have read it have given me feed back that it is great book is found here: https://www.tatepublishing.comstorebook.php?w=9781681422640 It is the first of the books I've written.

 

The irony of your reply is demonstrated in your unfamiliarity with the text you're criticizing me over. You asked for books we're reading. Did you mean to set this as a means of blasting others or to edify the body?

 

Well, less language and less explicit gore.

That was an interesting book. It did sag in the middle, so I don't blame you for losing interest. However, like all Stephen King books it ridicules Christians and Christian beliefs and it's full of ungodly activities.

 

The complete works of Charles Dickens
An Hour with George Muller
Alive: A cold Case Approach tot he Resurrection - J, Warner Wallacs
Lord Teach us to Pray - Andrew Murray

 

This is a quick and easy read, only 22 pages. You will find nothing new, but it is a good sharing of the reliability of the gospels. You can use ideas from the publication when talking with folk about the resurrection.

 

There are any number of books on this subject. I like to read them all when I have time. I just happen to pick this one up for free for my kindle. So often my reading lists are dictated by my being a pastor.

 

I'm thinking of taking a break from nonfiction and indulging in a good novel.

Jean Larteguy's The Centurions was reprinted this year, been meaning to grab a copy.

 

I agree about the need to read some good fiction...my goal for the summer is to begin working through Tom Clancy's works up to Red Rabbit. Always good to read fiction.
