Eccentric Glamour: Creating an Insanely More Fabulous You
AuthorSimon Doonan
ISBN1416535438
Ok, so I have both a problem and a strange fascination with fashion books. Fashion books are mostly name-droppy, classist, expensive, dictatorial twaddle that make women feel bad while purporting to make them feel good. "Oh, honey, you can't have square glasses with that square face!" "One Balenciaga...
The Shaping of Things to Come: Innovation and Mission for the 21st Century Church
AuthorMichael Frost
ISBN1565636597
I liked this book, but it was a bit of a mixed bag.

On the one hand, it was full of great ideas for the church to recover its missional impulse. I liked the encouragement to contextualize to local environs. Churches don't need to look the same. And I loved the ideas for making the church more organic....

The Hole in Our Gospel: What Does God Expect of Us? the Answer That Changed My Life and Might Just Change the World
AuthorRichard Stearns
ISBN0785229183
WHAT DOES GOD EXPECT OF US?

Is our faith just about going to church, studying the Bible and avoiding the most serious sins--or does God expect more?

He Loves Me!: Learning to Live in the Father's Affection
AuthorWayne Jacobsen
ISBN0964729253
So many Christians believe God's love is fickle: when they sin, He turns away in disgust and anger. They vacillate between "He loves me" and "He loves me not" because of their behavior. That reasoning, writes Wayne Jacobsen, is as flawed as pulling petals from a daisy. Rather God's love is sturdy, enduring,...

AuthorMark Batterson

Most of us have no idea where we're going most of the time. Perfect.

The Mark of the Christian
AuthorFrancis A. Schaeffer
ISBN0830834079
"It is possible to be a Christian without showing the mark, but if we expect non-Christians to know that we are Christians, we must show the mark."
