The Prophecy Answer Book by Dr. David Jeremiah
This book will inspire you to talk with other people about prophecies in the bible. I think that one of the most fascinating topics of the book was the Garden of Eden and the oil today. This book will help you think of how events in the past affect the events of today. This is a great book to read and it does not talk over your head.

Anatomy of the Soul review
Monday, May 24, 2010
Review - Searching For God Knows What
Searching for God Knows What expanded edition is the first book I have ever read by Donald Miller and it will not be my last. The book is very thought provoking. Now I did not think so at first because the first chapter was really different from most books. I had know idea where and what this book was about just from the first chapter but I was determine to find out. I kept on reading it and I am glad I did. The material in this book will get you thinking and see things from a different perspective. I really like how an idea was kept in play from chapter to chapter. This connection led to a deeper understanding of these ideas.
This book is an easy read. Do not be too quick to put down this book after the first chapter. Books like these help a person from getting in a mind set that they have all the answers or there way is always right. There appears to be an online game to play with prizes in the book so that should be an added bonus for any reader.

Plan B - Review
This book is very well written and down to earth read. The first part of the book is gentle in nature. This helps the reader to get to know the heart of the author. Then towards the end of the book some not so gentle advice is giving but it is done in love, mercy and grace. And knowing the author has your best interest at heart it is painless to take. So be prepared for this and your life will be change forever.

This book has great illustrations on life. The one I remember most out of the book is S.T.O.R.Y. I will not tell you what it means but this will help keep things in perspective. Overall this is a good book for anyone to read to bring you back into balance. I like the cover of the book and the book is an easy read. Life can be difficult but this book just might help with making it a bit easier.

Review of Different Eyes the Art of Living Beautifully
This book is very thought-provoking. It allows the reader to think differently about several subjects. At the end of each section are letters addressing tough issues. Along with these letters are questions to help engage your mind into looking at these issues in another way.
This book is very well written and at times very deep. But do not let that scare you away from reading it. There are several quotes that I will use from this book. There is a great story about comparing a police recruit and Christian living. If you want to challenge your view, this book is for you.
This book was provided to me by Zondervan Publishers for review purposes.

The Map: The Way of All Great Men review
This is a must read for any man wanting to understand his role in life. Understanding the three journeys will help any man bring balance to his life and deeper understanding of himself. While reading about the journeys and related stories for each one, gave me some much needed insight about events that happened in my life. It helped to look back on these events and realize what I could have done differently or the person going through that event could have done differently.
This book will definitely help me in the future. I plan on reading it over again every six months so I can stay on track and find new ideas that I might have missed from the previous reads.

The Hole in Our Gospel by Richard Stearns - book review
This book does not get bogged down with a bunch of statistics on the world’s condition. It gives real life stories to illustrate just how lives are changed by doing something.
Also, Mr. Stearns personal journey to Word Vision is very captivating. His life journey not only inspires but motivates the reader.
While reading this book the Haiti earthquake happened. The devastation to that country was unbelievable. Thank God that World Vision was there so people could have away to send their support.

Book Review - This Is Your Brain in Love
There are many stories of marriage life from his counseling sessions. These real life examples help you recognize the love type of you and your spouse. From just reading the stories, I could almost pinpoint what love type I was and my wife was.
The one negative thing about the book was a feeling of it being an advertisement. This is scattered throughout the book so it became a bit of a distraction. I am all for giving credit where credit is due for an idea or concept but I feel it was a little too much. If you can get by this one distraction the book has great potential to change your marriage for the better.

Who Knew I Like History - (my wife did)
This book not only goes into great length about the chase of Lincoln’s killer, it gives the reader insight of other key people during this time frame. Mr. Swanson has done some amazing research into Lincoln, Booth and the rest of the key people.
If I had read this in history class, I would have a whole new approach to learning history. Do not miss out on one of the most well written books on Lincoln’s killer. This book has launched me in reading other books about history.
