Life of the Beloved by Henri Nouwen
Evangelical Truth: A Personal Plea for Unity, Integrity, and Faithfulness by John Stott
It is possible that it may end up on my “Great Books” page which would make Stott the only person to have two books there (the one presently on the page is Stott’s The Cross of Christ). This book is a prophetic call for the church of Christ to take seriously the kingdom work of God, reject modern fundamentalism’s tendency to fragment from and demonize those who disagree with them on “non essentials”, and embrace a more evangelical mindset that is mission focused.
My Grandfather’s Son by Clarence Thomas
Post modernity will read this book and shake their heads at the “cruel and strange” approach Thomas’ grandfather used in raising his grandsons. I read it and long for a time when common sense ruled, hard work was rewarded, and adults were allowed the freedom to raise children into great men and women who think for themselves. Today, elites will call Thomas’ grandfather abusive. Clarence Thomas, from his seat on the Supreme Court, calls him the “greatest man I have ever known.”
I love this quote by Thomas’ grandfather: “Old man can’t done up and died. I know, cause I was there when it happened.”
On the Road To Armageddon by Timothy P. Weber
A solid historical review of the rise of dispensationalism within the modern Christian church and the potential and real negative effects that rise has had within the church and politics.

The True Bounds of Christian Freedom by Samuel Bolton
“A weak Christian and a strong Christ shall be able to do all.” – Samuel Bolton
Repentance and 21st Century Man by John C. Miller
A Faith Worth Sharing: A Lifetime of Conversations about Christ by C. John Miller
The best book I have read on evangelism which I have read in a long time. If your tired of “sale approaches” and “techniques” this book gently and clearly reveals the truth of the matter when it comes to sharing our faith – Its about the heart of the one who shares.
