The Coddling of the American Mind
“Prepare the child for the road, not the road for the child.”
Alone in Plain Sight
“Most of my life I’ve mistakenly believed that sticking a label on my forehead somehow tells the truth about who I really am… Every time I stumble upon a label I think might identify me, it eventually gets stripped away.”
Irreversible Damage
Buck Angel, a well-known trans man, even says, “How can we not question it? How can our own community not question it? That’s the part that I’m a little upset about; my own community not saying ‘Hey. We need to take responsibility for these children.’”
Fortitude
I vaguely knew about this guy- you know... the guy with the eye patch. Well. Turns out he has some interesting things to say.
Infinite
This felt like Inception meets Split meets The Matrix.
Gentle and Lowly
"This book is written for the discouraged, the frustrated, the weary, the disenchanted, the cynical, the empty. Those running on fumes. Those whose Christian lives feel like constantly running up a descending escalator.”
This Secret Thing
"Everyone was guilty of something. It didn't take a detective to figure that out."
The Unsaved Christian
“Mainstream Cultural Christians aren’t wrapped up in promoting some kind of gospel message. They are simply trying to be nice to others, pursue their idea of personal happiness, pray when something bad happens, and rest in the belief that they are going to heaven after they die." Does this sound like you or someone you know?
The Cipher
"I've given up on hope," she said quietly, then lifted her chin. "From now on, I fight."
Point of Danger
Disclaimer: this review is a little harsh in a (mostly) sarcastic way. If you regularly like Irene Hannon's books then I don't think what bothered me would really bother you. Alright, buckle up everyone.
An Extravagant Death
Part historical fiction, part Sherlock Holmes, and a dash of wit, this book was a fun read for me.
Word-Centered Church
I was immediately drawn into this book after just reading the introduction. Leeman wastes no time getting right to the heart of the matter and lays out the path he will take for the rest of this phenomenal book.
The Songs of Jesus
This is a great year-long journey through one of the most loved books of the Bible- the Psalms. I am not one for fluffy books…
The Last Secret You’ll Ever Keep
Mysterious and tense read. Terra was taken for 4 days, but no one noticed she was gone. She escapes but eventually…
How the Nations Rage
This is one of the most fair, balanced, and helpful books I’ve read on the topic of church and politics.
Memory Lane
“This isn’t real. This isn’t real. Trust no one.” Implanting memories from one person’s brain to another. What could wrong?
Complex
Not super stoked about this book— mainly because if this had a movie rating it would be…
Echo Island
I'm always hesitant when non-fiction writers decide to write fiction, especially theologians. It was thought-provoking and suspenseful. The descriptions and dialogue…
A Christmas Resolution
‘A Christmas Resolution’ did not change my opinion about short stories. There just isn't enough book to…
The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self
In a culture where the individual is king, our personal thinking is heavily influenced, rather- manipulated, by the masses. I don't know about you, but I'd like to do my own thinking and Trueman's book will at the very least help you become more aware of the potential 'why' you think the things you do.
