Recommended Reads

I am an avid reader - I practically devour books.  I'd like to share some that I have either particularly enjoyed and/or have been particularly helpful.  The non-fiction ones I have listed are either Christian apologetics/Christian living books or devotionals. 
**Also, note: While these authors have a lot of great content, take it all with a grain of salt, and the Bible should always be the ultimate guide and source of truth. **

Non-Fiction

  • Lee Strobel, The Case for Faith, The Case for Christ, and The Case for Creation
  • Mark and Patty Virkler, Meditation: How to Study the Bible in the Presence of God
  • Jobe Martin, The Evolution of a Creationist
  • John Eldredge, Captivating and Wild at Heart (the first is geared toward women and the second toward men, but it is helpful reading both to understand the other gender better)
  • Rob Bell - He can be controversial but this book is excellent: What We Talk About When We Talk About God
  • Os Guinness, The Call
  • Chip Ingram, Good to Great in God's Eyes
  • Anne Graham Lotz, My Heart's Cry
  • Beth Moore, really anything by her is excellent but I particularly enjoyed So Long Insecurity and Get Out of That Pit and Further Still and Audacious 
  • Lysa Terkeurst, Unglued and Made to Crave
  • Candace Cameron Bure, Reshaping it All: Motivation for Physical and Spiritual Fitness
  • Priscilla Shirer, Breathe: Making Room for Sabbath 

Fiction

  • Books of the Infinite series by R.J. Larson
    These are reminiscent of the Old Testament, but in the setting of a fictional world
  • Karen Hancock, Arena - This is like a Sci-Fi Christian analogy story (like what C.S. Lewis did in Chronicles of Narnia, only a very different story - Chronicles of Narnia is also a fave of mine)
  • Any of Tracie Peterson's books
    She will keep you on the edge of your seat!  She has a plethora of historical Christian romance, with a bit of suspense thrown in.  Usually I don't like suspense, but these I do like, she does it well and with the right amount.
  • Kim Vogel Sawyer
    Another author who has a gift for historical fiction
  • Julie Klassen
    A neat mix of Jane Austin meets Jane Eyre
  • Janice Thompson
    Her "Weddings by Bella" trilogy is hilarious!  It's like a chick flick comedy, only better because it's Christian based and in book form.

WELCOME!

Hi there, I am so glad you stopped by!  I hope you find encouragement and stimulating thoughts in what I share here!  My goal is to pursue God and His goodness and inspire others to do the same!
