A review of my recently read books: The Upcoming Economic Collapse by Dr Stephen Leeb -Discusses the impending oil crisis, what we can do to prepare and where to invest your money to succeed in the future. Highly recommended! I want my own wind turbine now. The Road Less Traveled by Scott Peck -I finally read this best selling classic. I see this book quoted everywhere and finally read it myself. I loved it! Everyone read this one if you haven’t yet. What’s So Amazing About Grace by Philip Yancy -A refreshing and challenging read. Great for discussion. The Gospel According to Starbucks by Leonard Sweet -I loved this book. It’s a perfect mix of spiritual principles and marketing genius. A great read if your into business models, marketing and the emerging culture. Shopaholic and Sister by Sophie Kinsella -I’m reading the entire series and it’s a great laugh and choice fiction. A New Kind of Christian by Brian McLaren -A thought provoking introduction to the philosophy of the emerging church movement. Every Second Counts by Lance Armstrong -Inspiring read. It has more racing and training details than his first book, It’s Not About the Bike. Read the first book first, it’s better and talks more about his battle with cancer. Collapse by Jared Diamond -I’m on an environmental/anthropology/economic crisis info kick. This books presents new concepts to me and is helping round out my world view. Abba’s Child by Brennan Manning -I love Brennan Manning’s books. Highly recommended! It is similar to Ragamuffin Gospel but includes more of his personal journey toward grace. and finally… The Happiest Baby on the Block -After you get married, I guess you begin reading child raising books. Never too early to start. |
