Zondervan, 1998

The Case that saved my life

The Jewish Study Bible

Diana Mecum DianaDoesIt.com, 2008

Fantastic Navigation Feature!
This was one of the easiest books to navigate through that I have ever seen because it emulates the hardcopy. In fact, it's better because I don't have to keep paging and paging to get to where I want to read. Instead, each chapter or individual book is just a click ...

Searching for God Knows What

Donald Miller

Thomas Nelson, 2004

Eye opening!
What a refreshing view of Christianity! I love Miller's offbeat way of sharing the truth through stories and observations. (He doesn't speak "Christianese".) This book showed me and reminded me of whom Jesus is and was, not the version that was taught in Sunday School. ...
