More On Books

With my last book review I have decided to briefly look at a few others that I have read fairly recently.

The Jesus I Never Knew by Phillip Yancey
Similar to the End Of Religion it that it shows the true Jesus of the Bible. Also, the author talks
about his days growing up in a fundamentalist church in the Deep South during the days of
segregation which was a bonus. Recommended for any believer as a good read as it looks at
what Jesus came to Earth to accomplish.

Fearless by Max Lucado
The title says it all as it is another great book by Pastor Lucado. Has both Biblical and earthly
illustrations to overcome fear and doubt not to mention anxiety.

The Celtic Path Of Prayer by Calvin Miller
Really illustrates how the ancient Celts turned prayer not only into an art form but as a
means of union with God. Also, the author manages to show how Celts used some of their
old pagan beliefs and Incorporated into communion with Christ. Best part the praying to each
person of the Trinity.

Call Of The Wild by Jack London
One of the great classics of literature as the author give one a desire to see nature. Warning
may be a hard read for any dog lover as there is cruelty to dogs throughout the book in
great detail. The ending is very haunting as the main character Buck really becomes one with
nature.

There may be others to come as I have a lot more books sitting on my selves to be read.
