God is up to something really big. Most of it is happening outside the USA. Read this and you will be encouraged about being a Christian in these times and you will be motivated to get involved. A fantastic and informative read.

A challenging and "must read" for every Christian. We are using this book as a study guide for the Thursday night group.
Flatland
Edwin Abbott
Originally published in 1880, this is a remarkable story of life in a 2 dimensional world. Incredible insight into at lease one possible nature of God and His creation. This book will make you think!
Shattered Dreams
Larry Crabb, WaterBrook Press, 2001
Through the story of Naomi in the Book of Ruth, Larry Crabb shows how the Holy Spirit uses the pain of shattered dreams to help us discover our desire for God, to help us begin dreaming the highest dream. God stripped Naomi of happiness in order to prepare her for joy.
Intimacy with God
Cynthia Heald
NavPress, 1987
Excellent study for group or individual taking you through the Psalms as you learn about the different aspects of God: Father, Shepherd, Creator, Refuge, etc.
The Path of Loneliness
Elisabeth Elliot
Elisabeth Elliot guides the reader through loneliness and lonesomeness to see them "as a field with a treasure in it, leading you to hidden, divine blessings."
Tom has been recommending this book from the pulpit. I've
just started to read it and I am excited about what appears
to be guidlines for a practical application of my faith. D.

This is an excellent book in which Strobel asks
all the right questions and then goes to the best sources for
answers. Most impressive are the testimonies of the resource
people--in every case their research has increased their faith.
