books by James A. Houston     books:       Real Christianity14 reviews William Wilberforce Victor, 2005 Amazing Grace It is an excellent book. Many who preach christianity should read this book to know what it really means to be a Christian - to walk by the teachings of Christ. As Gandhi said, if the Christians imitated the ways of Christ, there will be no need for another religion!!             Reformed Pastor8 reviews Richard Baxter Pickering & I, 1983 A Call to True Sacrificial Ministry The Reformed Pastor was actually very different than I anticipated, being nothing about reformed theology or even theology at all. "Reformed Pastor" actually means reforming pastors, using the word the same way we would say "reformed hardened criminal." Hmmm. I guess that already tells you this book isn't one of those "feel-good" books. Richard Baxter was famous for two things: being a ...             Bird of Another Heaven3 reviews James D. Houston Anchor, 2008 powerful character study In 1980s Northern California radio host Sheridan "Dan" Brody has always wondered about his roots, but did nothing to learn more about the identity of his father. However, when he sees his birth certificate, it includes the name of his sire. He wants to know more about his paternal side. Not long afterward, Rosa Waddell calls Dan while he is on the air to inform him she is his grandmother. ...             Wasting Time With God : A Christian Spirituality of Friendship With God4 reviews Klaus Issler, James Houston InterVarsity Press, 2001 Christian Spirituality: Deep, Historic, Biblical Klaus Issler is professor of Christian educationa and theology at the evangelical Talbot School of Theology (Biola University) in La Mirada CA. The title "Wasting Time with God" is an irony: what people consummed with busy-ness and materialism consider "lost" time is, in fact, the very center of life. The book has broad appeal, drawing from an immense diversity of Christian sources. Tracing his ...             The Identity Factor11 reviews James Houston Turner Aria Publishers, 2007 Make Room...... I recently read The Identity Factor. I do not claim to be a genius (Well, sometimes.) but I read a LOT. Upon completion of the book, this is what I wrote to James... You, my man, have raised the bar! The Identity Factor is beyond great! The preliminary reviews of Bourne meets DaVinci meets Ryan simply does not do this book justice. There's little I can say to support this without being a ...             The White Dawn3 reviews James Houston Signet, 1971 An excellent book on eskimo life I read this book many years ago as a child on a recommendation from my father. He gave me his copy of the book before he died. The book's details on Inuit life and how it is affected by the inclusion of the sailors makes for great reading. This should be required reading in school and for any Sociology course.             Farewell to Manzanar226 reviews Jeanne Wakatsuki Houston Houghton Mifflin, 2002 Great book The book was very well written and you could actually put yourself in some of the incidents that happened through her life. It is very hard to belief that this discrimination happened in our country less that 75 years ago. Great read.             The Creator: Living Well in Gods World (Volume 4, Soul's Longing Series) James M. Houston David C. Cook Distribution, 2007 One of the greatest Christian thinkers and writers on spiritual formation today, Dr. James Houston thoughtfully examines what is at the core of every human soul: a longing intimacy with God. In each book, Houston examines an aspect of what it means to truly experience the most profound of all relationships. In The Creator the fouth in the five book series one of the world's foremost Christian thinkers reveals, through a clear and compelling ...             Snow Mountain Passage29 reviews James D. Houston Harvest Books, 2002 One of the finest books ever written about the West This is simply an awesome display of storytelling, combining historical "fiction" with non-fiction (the latter derived from the actual notes and writings of a real survivor of the incident), and illustrating the incredible power of James D. Houston's mind and writing talent! If you want to actually imagine and feel and understand what it was like, to cross the western half of this country in ...             Move2 reviews powerHouse Books, 2006 more intense than the sample pages show After reading reviews in magazines, I was really interested in this book. What I found was VERY surprising and so much more intense than what the reviews and sample pages show. It made me wholly appreciate the beauty of the human body even more. Maybe I missed it somewhere but I had no idea the book was for AIDS ("Move for AIDS"). Also, IT WAS A HUGE BOOK. It really gave a second level when I was ...             The Second Thirteen4 reviews James Houston Turner JB Books, 1999 The MUST Read [The author's....] The Second Thirteen is an action-packed book that you can't put down! The characters draw you in and you feel as though you are one with them experiencing all the drama through which they go! I look forward to reading more of Jim's books. This book is well done and well written.

Houston avon publishers, 1978 WHEN WORLDS COLLIDE.... This is a captivating story that will appeal to those who love well-written historical fiction. The author has a decided flair for epic storytelling, as the reader will be riveted to this wonderfully told tale of abduction, slavery, and love. It is the story of Sarah Wells, a seventeen year old settler from the colony of New Hampshire, who is forcibly captured by a party of Abnaki Indians, ...             One: Yoga Moves James Houston Harper Collins, 2005 "One" takes yoga imagery away from the traditional and captures the yoga body in a series of striking graphic photographs shot in the USA and Australia.
