iGod: Church-Tank - a scary thought.

About

Brian Draper: Spiritual Intelligence
A friend of mine has written a very help, practical and, dare I say, profoundly challenging. A good one for passing on. (*****)
John Micklethwait: God is Back: How the Global Rise of Faith is Changing the World
(****)
Dave Workman: The Outward-focused Life: Becoming a Servant in a Serve-me World
(*****)
Seth Godin: Tribes
(***)
Thom S. Rainer: Simple Church: Returning to God's Process for Making Disciples
Really enjoying this book. Rainer says some strong stuff about programme- focussed churches. (***)
Adam Phillips: On Kindness
A challenging book to start the year at just £9.99.
Maggi Dawn: Beginnings and Endings (and What Happens in Between): Daily Bible Readings from Advent to Epiphany
I bought this book last year when it first came out to lead me into Advent. I found it incredible useful. it gives a reflective thought for each day of Advent up to January 6th (12th Night). (***)
William P. Young: The Shack
Sebastian Faulks: Devil May Care (James Bond)
Fun! What I like about it is that it is still set in the 60s during the Cold War, apart from being a cracking good story. Sebastian Faulks is Ian Fleming!
Donald Miller: To Own a Dragon: Reflections on Growing Up Without a Father
From the author of Blue Like Jazz we have some easy on the eyes poignant insights into fatherhood and the fatherless.

Hm...I wonder if this is how other religions see the church?
