People often ask me “what are your all-time favorite books?”, “who is your favorite author?”, “what are you currently reading?”, etc. In light of my upcoming birthday (hint hint), I thought I would share which books I am eager to acquire at the moment…
With God in the Crucible: Preaching Costly Discipleship by P. J. Storey
Embracing Grace: A Gospel for All of Us by Scot McKnight
Cadences of Home: Preaching Among Exiles and The Land: Place As Gift, Promise, and Challenge in Biblical Faith by Walter Brueggemann
Christ Plays in Ten Thousand Places: A Conversation in Spiritual Theology and Eat This Book: A Conversation in the Art of Spiritual Reading by Eugene Peterson
Velvet Elvis: Repainting the Christian Faith by Rob Bell
And with Christmas in mind:
Two good friends are publishing books later this fall with IVP, and I am eager for copies of both!
Practical Justice by Kevin Blue, and Old Testament Theology, Volume 2: Israel’s Faith by John Goldingay
