Just added a few more books to my 2008 read list. Here are a few thoughts.
The Courage to Teach: The book has become somewhat of a classic for teachers who are interested in the holistic development of their students. I thought it was okay. The chapter on paradox was worth the book to me.
The Art and Craft of Preaching: Probably the most comprehensive resource on preaching that I've ever read. I'd encourage every preacher to get a copy and keep it on their desk. The chapters are written by excellent communicators like Haddon Robinson, Craig Brian Larson, Bill Hybels, Rob Bell, John Piper, and Tim Keller. And for a textbook with over 700 pages...surprisingly inspiring.
The Multiplying Church: Wow. I told Leah the other day that this is the book I wish I could have written:) It is a fantastic description of the dream that I have for Metro Detroit. It's must reading for anyone who loves the church.
