A Powerful, Chilling Work
Revisado: 01-11-25
The story was excellent and I enjoyed the linguistic elements. I wish I had thought of writing this. Perhaps some day I will write something comparable.

Historia
Conceived over 30 years of painting and creating in his studio, this book is Makoto Fujimura's broad and deep exploration of creativity and the spiritual aspects of "making". What he does in the studio is theological work as much as it is aesthetic work. In between pouring precious, pulverized minerals onto handmade paper to create the prismatic, refractive surfaces of his art, he comes into the quiet space in the studio, in a discipline of awareness, waiting, prayer, and praise.

Profound and Encouraging Read
Revisado: 12-13-24
This book was incredibly encouraging to me as an artist and it beautifully framed the act of making in the theology of resurrection. I had been struggling to find my place in a local utilitarian church and that problem is not solved but I am much clearer eyed about the value of art in general and my call as an artist filled with Jesus’ Spirit.

New York Times best seller and Whitebread Book of the Year, Nobel Laureate Seamus Heaney's new translation of Beowulf comes to life in this gripping audio. Heaney's performance reminds us that Beowulf, written near the turn of another millennium, was intended to be heard not read.

Historia
"Who am I becoming?" That was the question nagging pastor and author John Mark Comer. Outwardly, he appeared successful. But inwardly, things weren’t pretty. So, he turned to a trusted mentor for guidance and heard these words: "Ruthlessly eliminate hurry from your life. Hurry is the great enemy of the spiritual life." It wasn’t the response he expected, but it was - and continues to be - the answer he needs. Within this audiobook, you’ll find a fascinating road map to staying emotionally healthy and spiritually alive in the chaos of the modern world.

Revisado: 06-11-24
This is the second (or third) time I’ve listened to this book. Each time I’m more challenged and changed. It is a must listen and it will absolutely change your life if you join the war on hurry if most up us join this war it will change and renew our places of worship, our neighborhoods, and ultimately the world.

Adventures of Huckleberry Finn: A Signature Performance by Elijah Wood

Historia
Ernest Hemingway said, “All modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn". One hundred years after its author’s death, this classic remains remarkably modern and poignantly relevant. In this new edition, Elijah Wood reads Huck in a youthful voice that may be the closest interpretation to Twain’s original intent. His performance captures the excitement and confusion of adolescence and adventure.

Historia
We are constantly being formed by the world around us. To be formed by Jesus will require us to become his apprentice. To live by what the first Christian disciples called a Rule of Life—a set of practices and relational rhythms that slow us down and open up space in our daily lives for God to do what only God can do—transforms the deepest parts of us to become like him. This introduction to spiritual formation is full of John Mark Comer’s trademark mix of theological substance and cultural insight as well as practical wisdom on developing your own Rule of Life.

A Book filled with Wisdom, Humor, and Practicality
Revisado: 03-16-24
I’m not in vocational ministry but I am involved in leading ministry at my local church. This book provides deep and long-earned wisdom. I particularly appreciated the big challenges after each section. I am deeply encouraged at a personal level and challenged to take my leadership to the next level (both in ministry and my work as a manager). It is beautiful how the practical wisdom, and insights from years of study in the book of Acts are seamlessly interwoven. Great book! It will change the way you think about planning and preparing for the future.

Historia
When Walt Whitman self-published "Leaves of Grass" in 1855, he rocked the literary world and forever changed the course of poetry. In subsequent editions, Whitman continued to revise and expand his poems - but none matched the raw power and immediacy of the first edition. This volume presents the 1855 "Leaves of Grass" in its entirety, unchanged, along with Ralph Waldo Emerson's famous letter to Whitman.

One hesitates to leave a review for Walt. Naturally, it was wonderful and the reading wonderful. I spent my undergraduate and grad work admiring the modernist poets. I feel the winds changing within me after this listen.

Historia
In this audiobook, author and pastor Bryan Chapell shares this biblical perspective of vocation, explaining how God gives purpose to our work by making it an instrument of his grace to our own hearts, as well as a way of bringing his goodness and glory into our world. Chapell explains how we can worship God by our work, rising above drudgery, duty, or self-interest with the understanding that our jobs are unique callings for displaying God's character and care. Our work is worship when we see the glory beyond the grind, the mission in the mundane, and the grace at work.

This book is one of far too few books which bring spiritual dignity to brick layers (of the white collar or blue collar or no collar variety). A wonderful read!

This book is profound in so many ways—deep, considered, spiritually and psychologically challenging. It is also practical in so many ways—down to helping you pray through each chapter. I would recommend this to absolutely anyone.
