    That is a tremendous book! :thumbs: Another on the same line only from a more missiological point of view is The Legacy of William Carey, by Vishal and Ruth Mangalwadi.

    I have one chapter to go in The Power of Body Language by Tonya Reiman. I am in sales, so I thought this book would be helpful for me so that I do not miscommunicate with others through improper body language and so that I can pick up on hidden clues in other's body language. I've enjoyed this book, though you have to overlook some of her evolutionary (aka Darwinian) presuppositions.

    I am halfway through a second trip through Questioning Evangelism by Randy Newman. I have found this book to be an insightful guide in the matter of talking to other people (like my co-workers) about the gospel. The book deals with common objections to the gospel that we face and gives you strategies to answer these questions in a conversational mode. I read the entire book on the Sunday prior to this past Christmas while at my inlaw's house. Now I have purchased the book and I am reading more slowly to let it sink in.

    In my Bible readings I'm in the Gospel of John...and it's great. I'm also reading Mere Christianity and the Pursuit of God.

    I'm reading the TNIV, and I find it to be a faithful translation of the Bible.

    I am Reading "When the Vow Breaks" by Joseph Warren Kniskern.
    This is a revision of an earlier book (same Name)
    A very interesting book for anyone who is going or has been Divorced or someone wanting to understand it more.
    After one chapter I felt as though he'd been inside my mind nearing my divorce.
