BOOKS?

Hi everyone...
What have you been reading lately? I thought I'd do a little book review and talk about what I'm currently looking into. So here goes...

FINISHED RECENTLY:
Really interesting take on the nature of one man's struggle to try to get his brain around our heavenly Father. It's good at both challenging you and getting at your heart at the same time. It broad strokes a ton of theological themes by tackling them in a fictional dialogue... good way to do it I think. Worth the read.

NOT A BIG FAN... the author's research was really really shoddy. He felt like the emperor Constantine was the originator of things like corporate worship... I think a look at the Old Testament and the ministry of Jesus would probably disagree with him... lol. He took several Scriptures out of context too. Example: he said that when Jesus cleared the temple of the money changers that he was not just trying to get them to return to a "house of prayer" but was calling for house church... what?! That's taking some liberties on the text! OVERALL: I would not recommend this book. Barna's revolutionaries was better.

If you want to, you can download and read the whole thing. VERY COOL! Another theological dialogue and teachinga bout getting back to the heart of the church. Liked it alot. Reminded me of my relationships with many of my friends in ministry... how we can challenge each other and rely on each other even if it's been awhile since we've seen one another. Makes a good case for the organism of Christianity not just the organization.

BOOKS ON MY DESK RIGHT NOW:
Emerging Worship - not learning anything new right now.
THE MESSAGE: Old Testament Prophets - learning a ton about Father right now.

BOOKS I'M LOOKING AT FOR RESEARCH/FUTURE SERMONS:
The Barbarian Way - read it, it's good
The Voice of the Martyrs - good devo.

FINALLY... still need to get "TUCK" by Lawhead... if you haven't read HOOD or SCARLET, they are really good.

WHAT ARE YOU READING RIGHT NOW? Anything worth tackling out there?
