    Has anybody read Hank Hannigraph's book "The Last Prophet"? I just started. It is fiction like LeHay's except he is Preterest (tribulation was considered as the destruction of the Israeli nation in AD70.

    The book is set in the first century and although I don't agree with the premise, I realize that it is fiction and the stories of first century people make them come to life. Whether or not all of this is from actual research or just good guesses based on some historical knowledge is not known. But the reading is enjoyable.

    Just before coming to this forum, I decided to read again an old timer: "Christianity Is Christ" by W.H.Griffith Thomas, D.D. I hope to begin this evening.BTW- I knew a man once who would never allow a "D.D." to be placed after his name; a Dr. Twiddle.

    --I'm currently reading on about six different "crafts books" with which titles I won't bore anyone. [​IMG]

    --Book of Acts

    --Reading C.S. Lewis' Narnia series with my grandsons. This is my favorite "read" right now. [​IMG]

    --Just finished Michael Crichton's "State of Fear".

    --AND, I'm now technically "in between" REAL books, coz I'm currently slogging my way through the Baptist Board archives and 2005 posts on the Calvinism/Arminianism debate. This is a SERIOUS and BUSY reading/study that I've gotten myself into! [​IMG] I'm following every weblink referenced in the posts, etc. This "book" could take the rest of the year to finish! :D

    I just bought Reagan's Revolution by Craig Shirley. Has anyone read it? It sounds pretty good, tells the story of how Reagan's loss prepared him for and perhaps catapulted him to the 1980 Republican nomination and Presidency. How about The Age of Reagan, which I also just got?

    Is Michael Crichton's book any good? I have been tempted to buy it. Or should I just wait for the paperback?
