Reading Goals
A few weeks ago Jud Wilhite posted his reading list for this year over at the People of the Second Chance blog. After taking a five month break from reading books I am ready to dive back in. Here is a small list of the books on my list for the next few months:
Expectant Father [...]
Guerrilla Lovers
I consider it a privilege to call Vince Antonucci a friend. A little over a year ago he moved from Virginia Beach to Vegas to start a new church in Sin City. It has been an exciting and roller-coaster journey for Vince and his team, but soon the church will be launching! If you have [...]
What Would You Do?
Yesterday’s post was about six coming books that I am excited about. Because of my position as bookstore manager I have access to most books before they publish. I also read a large number of books for blog tours. Numerous authors, friends and others send me a copy of there new or upcoming book and [...]

Drops Like Stars by Rob Bell

Eyes Wide Open by Jud Wilhite
I have spent countless days, no scratch that, years thinking things like, “Benji you will never be good enough” or “You are worthless” even “No one will even care if you were alive or dead.” I spent very little time in front of mirrors because I did not want to have to deal with seeing [...]
The Divine Commodity by Skye Jethani

I have offered no grandiose prescription for revolution or ecclesiastical upheaval. These pages have contained no shock and awe, no scorched earth tactics, no Daisy [...]
