2007 Reading

Well it seems that my last post about reading struck a chord with some people. Primarily as regards posting book reviews, with comments received both on and off the blog. It also prompted Bryan to post a list of his reading from last year. It struck me as an eminently good idea, seeing as I have a poorly-updated list of my recently read books on the side-bar.

---

Of the 78, I think the best ones were, in no particular order, The Jesus Gospel (Liam Goligher), Jesus Driven Ministry (Ajith Fernando), The Hand of God (Fred Leahy), The Radical Reformission (Mark Driscoll), Worship by the Book (Don Carson) and Total Church (Tim Chester and Steve Timmis).

I've provided links to those books, to Christian online stores where possible, or to Amazon for the others, but remember, the best place to get reduced price books is still ICM at Bleary! And you can order online!
