Enough: Finding More by Living With Less by Will Davis Jr.
We all know of the rat race, or what many people call the American Dream. We spend more, we work more, we stress more. We never have enough money, or enough stuff, do we? Luckily Will Davis Jr. is not only a man who has noticed the insufficiencies that us Americans...
Handy Guide to New Testament Greek: Grammar, Syntax, and Diagramming by D. Huffman
Purchase directly from Kregel Academic or from Amazon.com. Dr. Huffman, thank you … thank you … thank you! I write a lot of reviews for books that are general, Christian living type books. Seldom in my reviewing do I get to dig into a book that covers Biblical...
The Ultimate Survival Guide to Youth Ministry by Joel Lund
So, the reality of youth ministry is (and you can ask anybody involved in youth ministry, and they’d tell you the same) that you are always, always on the clock. Whether or not you are physically at the church, at a students high school ball game, or you are at home...
Miraculous: A Fascinating History of Signs, Wonders, and Miracles by Kevin Belmonte @ThomasNelson
Weighing in at over 300 pages, I must admit that Belmonte’s text is weighty. Don’t be afraid though, as historically-driven as this book is it is far from those textbooks you remember from high school. Rather, this book is devotional in nature. It shows how God has...
#StillLolo by @LaurenScruggs @TyndaleHouse
In December 2011, Lauren (“LoLo”) Scruggs, a 23-year-old fashion journalist, suffered a sudden injury that made headlines around the world. She had been on a short flight to look at Christmas lights and, upon exiting the small plane, was hit by the still-moving...
#MissionalMoves by @robwegner and @jmagruder (@alanhirsch)
So, here’s the reality of the situation: The church as we know it, as we have known it the past twenty or thirty or fifty years, has stayed the same. The consistency of what happens within the church walls is probably a good thing, because when something works than...
Ruth: From Bitter to Sweet by John Currid
There have yet to included a commentary in the list of reviews for our website, so this makes the first. Foremost, the reader should know that the “commentary” by Currid is quaint. The exposition weighs in at 140 pages, it is written very easy to understand (mostly...
The Bible Answer Handbook: A Guide to More Than 700 Challenging Questions by Dr. Larry Richards
Prior to discovering the Bible Answer Handbook, I had not heard of Dr. Larry Richards nor did I know how much he has already assisted in being published. As he lays out in the introduction of the Bible Answer Handbook, his conviction is that the Word of God is both at...
Marked: Discovering What It Means To Follow Jesus by Steven Kozak
My honest opinion, from the start, is that Kozak had a slow start with his book. Hear me out 🙂 In my opinion, the first line of the entire book should have been, “A disciple is marked by the kingdom.” (vii) Since I sat down with the book the first time and traveled...
#30Words by @JarridWilson
So, I’ll be transparent from the get-go. I’m not good with sticking to a devotional like this. I like going through a book, passage by passage. I like studying in depth concerning a specific topic or doctrine. But a devotional that is “for the rest of us,” doesn’t...
Unstoppable by Nick Vujicic
When it comes to battles of the heart and the wars within our minds, we can sheepishly cover up those issues. They are the slyest of issues, aren’t they? Depression sinks deep into our soul. Loneliness. Feelings of inadequacy. These are all just parts of going through...
Jesus: A Theography by @LenSweet and @FrankViola
Do I believe them when they introduced the book and said that it was not for scholars? Not a chance. This is a stellar, massive, well-thought-out project. I am so lucky to have landed a free copy from booksneeze.com. So here’s the skinny on the book. It IS written in...
Taking Jesus at His Word by Addison Hodges Hart
I tend to pick up any book at all that talks about our Savior Jesus. What is more appealing to me is when the text comments directly on His words. Now if the author throws in the words “kingdom” or gives special attention to the Sermon on the Mount, than I just melt....
