Diary From The Dome, Reflections on Fear and Privilege During Katrina

This book improved my life!
The experience that Mr. Harris went through was clearly life-altering for him. Fortunately, as a reader I was able to feel the experience--mainly do to his informal and personal writing style--the trauma for myself; thus gaining a similar perspective as did Mr. Harris from his ordeal. For this, I thank him. His "20 suggestions" about life at the end of the book ring true and are achievable for ...

Handbook of Church Discipline: A Right and Privilege of Every Church Member (Jay Adams Library)

The BEST on the subject
This book should be mandatory in every seminary or pastoral seminar. I also read his original book over 10 years ago and bought this edition because the other one never made it back to me after I loaned it out. The corrections he made were outstanding and makes this book even more valuable. It is written to cover Matthew 18:15-17 and it is done both biblically and simple in its presentation. ...
Hazards of Being Male: Surviving the Myth of Masculine Privilege

Why is this book not required reading in schools?
A must-read for men! So many of my male friends dislike feminism. Why? Because of the way feminism is taught. When I went to college 4 years ago, men were consistently shown how unfairly privileged they were; that they had a multitude of extra privileges as males. Then they were told to "acknowlege" these priveleges - aka - feel consistently guilty about them. All I wanted was for them to ...

Proper Theology = Proper Living
There is quite the movement in today's evangelical circles to the idea of "practical theology." Living what you believe, or 'walking the walk, if you will. What this movement sorely misses however is that to "live what you believe," you must KNOW WHAT YOU BELIEVE! Ryle deftly walks the line between Systematic and Practical theologies, constantly forcing the reader to stop and examine his/her ...

The Word For Today
, 2007
Please read this book! Seriously, i'm not kidding!
Prayer is everything to the believer in Christ! Prayer is our strongest weapon yet Christians today try and handle their situations first, and then pray second. This book gives a proper view of the Lord's power, and the power in a prayer warrior. This book encouraged me greatly, and it turned my eyes to Jesus in the midst of my trials and my tiredness. If I could have given six stars I would ...

This is a great book!!!
This is a well-written, very comprehensive look at racism and white supremacy and their effects on individuals and organizations. I really recommended it! Chapters from this book can be read all by themselves (like the 1st chapter about the origins of the white race), and they can also be used as training materials for activists or educators. There's a great section on patriarchy and really ...

Powerfully visual history ... a very good story
This book is well written, well researched and well titled. I devoured it in three sittings. While the First World War has been eclipsed by the Second World War for most Americans, this story captures a fascinating piece of America's earliest military history as a world power. I particularly enjoyed the vivid descriptions which the author used to recreate the past. The arduous conditions the ...

A Heroine For Our Times
Micki Lane is intelligent, sexy, complicated and smart, a heroine we only wish we identified with. While maintaining a demanding legal career, Micki also juggles motherhood and being a wife. She is tempted by an old love and yet knows she has made a wise choice in her mate. My favorite passages are the quieter scenes when Micki is entertaining her child; making love to her husband on a brief ...

A must-have for any parent or anyone with works with kids
Clear, logical, effective. Easy to read. Well laid out. No kidding. This is a book you'll go back to over and over again. I had no idea how freeing it would be to focus on the interactions in our family and step back from defining and understand my son (as a "spirited" kid etc etc) until I opened Alyson Schafer's book and read through the introduction. I've got advanced degrees and have ...

The Privileges of Beauty
The novel is a refreshing look at life in San Francisco in another time. It is a book after my own heart full of raucous humor, enigmatic characters, intrigue, deceit and mystery. What more could a reader want?

The events and personalities of A Breach of Privilege virtually leap off the page, and ...

Solid Practical Advice Every Parent Should Read
If you haven't heard the news, the youth of the church are not becoming the men & women of the church. Multiple studies show that most teens who are active in church lose their faith within a few years of leaving home. It's not the "bad" kids, but the "good" ones, the ones leading worship and going on mission trips, yours & mine, that graduate from church as they graduate from high school & ...
