2 New books! But not sure if anyone checks this besides me...
Well at least I can keep a running list of books I have read and want to read:
Here are 2 books that I have read recently which are highly recommended.
Lord Teach Us: The Lord's Prayer and the Christian Life
By William Willimon and Stanley Hauerwas
This is a relatively short book that is full of good stuff. It teaches some insights into the Lord's prayer and what that means for contemporary God-followers. It is very readable too.
Life On the Vine:Cultivating the Fruit of the Spirit in Christian Community
By Philip D. Kenneson
Well, this guy is a professor at Milligan College and I was able to take his main course called Christ and Culture. Kenneson is good at making Christians actually use their brains, and think about why we do much of what we do. Kit also went through the course too. Notice that this book is not a "how-to" in gaining the fruits of the Spirit. It is how to CULTIVATE in COMMUNITY our roots to produce these fruits of the Spirit. Big difference. However, if any of the students from NC read this it may give away some of my "original material" sources :)
