Stepping Up: A Journey Through the Psalms of Ascent, Member Book

Beth Moore

LifeWay Christian Resources, 2007

I love this study!
I've always enjoyed the psalms - and this is a fresh look at 15 of them - with Beth Moore's diligent study and application. Excellent and rewarding to spend time in this study - it's short - only 6 weeks. Helpful to have the videos/mp3s for the listening sessions. ...

Experiencing God: Knowing and Doing the Will of God, Member Book UPDATED

Henry T. Blackaby, Richard Blackaby, ...

LifeWay Christian Resources, 2007

Awesome doesn't begin to describe it

Believing God: Member Book

Beth Moore

Lifeway Christian Resources, 2003

Another Amazing Study!
I've been a part of a few Beth Moore Bible studies through my local church, but I'd have to say that this is my favorite. In many ways, Beth teaches a lot of basic truths that will really help new believers, but she also delves into some amazing depths to fuel the ...

A Woman's Heart: God's Dwelling Place, Member Book UPDATED

Beth Moore

LifeWay Christian Resources, 2007

Amazing! Worth Studying Over and Over Again
Beth Moore's updated Bible study, "A Woman's Heart: God's Dwelling Place," is a mixture of the material she published 10 years ago and the lessons she's learned since. The exercises are slightly changed - not all for the better. Typos and poor editing make me long ...

The Member of the Wedding

Carson McCullers

Mariner Books, 2004

Eloquent, lovely, and sad
This is my very favorite book and, in my opinion, far superior to "The Heart is a Lonely Hunter." I was not an adolescent when I read it--I was 23--but I was astonished by how often McCullers was able to perfectly describe what I had believed to be indescribable ...

Mother Teresa: Come Be My Light

Mother Teresa, Brian Kolodiejchuk

Doubleday, 2007

Inspiring
I was inspired, not scandalized, that Mother Teresa underwent a protracted dark night of the soul. The book may not have the impact it now has on those who knew her media image in another decade or so; one reason the book surprised me so much was that it presented a ...

Fusion: Turning First-Time Guests into Fully-Engaged Members of Your Church

Nelson Searcy, Jennifer Dykes Henson

Regal Books, 2008

A Must Read for All Church Assimilation Directors
I read Nelson's book this morning, handed it to my Assimilation Director this afternoon, and sent Nelson a note tonight, congratulating him on a fine piece of work. New Song has been doing many of the things Nelson suggests for a long time, but his is a systematic ...
