Books

Here are the last few books I've read and some comments on them.


Blue Like Jazz
If you're under 40 and you grew up in the church, this book will totally resonate with you.

7 Practices of Effective Ministry
I typically avoid these books, but it was assigned and it turned out to be great.

Raising a Modern Day Knight
Excellent book if you have a son.

Shame
I picked this up from the camp bookshelf in Sudan. I couldn't put it down. Rushdie does a masterful job and it's super relevant to today's issues with Islam.

Emma's War
A British Aid worker marries a Sudanese warlord. The author is a journalist who tells the history of the conflict in Sudan, plus the complexity of delivering aid to Africa in the context of Emma's story.
