Take and Read


Hands down, these are some of the greatest short-stories ever written:
A Scrap of Time and Other Stories by Ida Fink

You'll never have to forgive me for recommending this read:
The Sunflower: On the Possibilities and Limits of Forgiveness by Simon Wiesenthal

For a deep and practical understanding of how the Gospel changes everything read:
Total Church: A Radical Reshaping Around Gospel and Community by Tim Chester and Steve Timmis

For a classic read on questions of epistemology, Schaeffer rocks an infinite, personal God whom we can come to know intimately in:
He Is There and He Is Not Silent by Francis Schaeffer

A page-turner about the ethics of biotechnology. Sounds incredibly boring, I know. It's not. Trust me and read:
Enough: Staying Human in an Engineered Age by Bill McKibben

As a companion to the previous book, you should read (or re-read) the great science-fiction piece:
A Brave New World by Aldous Huxley

Why not read something amazing and worth your time? You would be a fool not to read:
The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien

For a very fascinating mixture of sociology, history, theology, and modern/postmodern culture, read:
Above All Earthly Pow'rs: Christ in a Postmodern World by David F. Wells

If you think you understand the doctrine of God, read:
The Doctrine of God by John Frame

Addicted to something? Know someone who is? Then you'd better get to reading:
Addictions: A Banquet in the Grave by Ed Welch

If you've ever doubted the importance of the Atonement, you've got to read:
Death by Love by Mark Driscoll

That should be enough to keep you going for a few weeks.
