Pagan Christianity?: Exploring the Roots of Our Church Practices

Frank Viola, George Barna

Hovel Audio, 2008

Great book
The book is extremely interesting. There is a huge shift in Christiandom for "something more" and I think Viola and Barna did a great job explaining why so many of us are feeling this way. The majority of institutionalized churches today absolutely miss the first ...

Eugene H. Peterson

Just as God used words both to create the world and to give us commandments, we too use words for many different purposes. In fact, we use the same language to talk to each other and to talk to God. Can our everyday speech, then, be just as important as the words and prayers we hear from the pulpit? Eugene Peterson unequivocally says Yes! Tell It ...

The Ragamuffin Gospel

Brennan Manning

Hovel Audio, 2005

Negative reviewers make Manning's point.

How Now Shall We Live

Charles Colson, Nancy Pearcey
