Know Your Enemy. Learn His Strategies. Defeat Him! (Volume 1)
Know Your Enemy. Learn His Strategies. Defeat Him! (Volume 1)

Review:My only complaint is that, the author purposely kept speaking in circles so you have to buy the other book. I guess what I am saying is, if I mention something deep, but purposely not elaborate unless you buy a book of me doing it... is annoying. But overall, I know for a fact she speaks truth, there's a world unseen that we Christians have yet to grasp. Good to know how your enemy works, you know? Read more

Why Atheists Need God to Make Their Case - Stealing from God
Why Atheists Need God to Make Their Case - Stealing from God

Review:Very well structured discussion the helps people logically defend what the evidence points toward: Theism and Christianity. It also exposes the false tactics of those who mock these beliefs. Highly recommend it! Read more

Lead Like Jesus
Lead Like Jesus

Review:The authors present some simple truths to complicated problems of leadership. The battle between EGO and God's leading in our lives...the struggle for servant leaders to invert the organizational pyramid...the need for leaders to establish healthy habits to develop their character. Though the writing is a little unpolished in places, the principles are solid. Read more

The Africans Who Wrote the Bible
The Africans Who Wrote the Bible

Review:I did not like this book.
A comment from Wickipedia about E.A. Budge, whom the author sites as one of his sources, best describes the whole of this book. Of Budge the commentator writes, "The common writing style of his era - a lac of clear distinction between opinion and incontrovertible fact - is no longer fashionable." I agree with the author that the Hebrews and the Egyptians were black people, but I find the book to be a convoluted compilation of possible truth, conjecture, contradicti... Read more

The Story Behind Who Changed the Bible and Why - Misquoting Jesus
The Story Behind Who Changed the Bible and Why - Misquoting Jesus

Review:I like Ehrman's style and perspective ... not so weighty as to be misunderstood, poses more questions than answers, and invites the reading to keep giving thought to the sacred texts and how we engage them in contemporary faith experiences. Read more

Being and Time (Harper Perennial Modern Thought)
Being and Time (Harper Perennial Modern Thought)

Review:I became interested in Heidegger because of his influence on Karl Rahner's earlier work, such as Spirit in the World. I am just finishing my second reading of Being and Time. Sometimes I think I am reading a classic and other times reductionism par excellence. Of course, the Rahnerian in me would point out Heidegger's denial of Absolute Being and thus a person's pre-apprehension of Being as the basis of inquiry and categorical knowledge. So, one wonders about the coherence and unity of Heidegger... Read more

The End of White Christian America
The End of White Christian America

Review:Demographer of religion Robert P. Jones has bad news for White Christian America (WCA). Few will be surprised at his news, that the heyday of WCA's influential role in United States society and politics is over. The End of White Christian America is Jones's retrospective and obituary. Jones quotes E.J. Dionne, who said "white Protestantism served as 'the civic and moral glue that held American public life together' for most of the United States' history."

I'll be up front about this: I... Read more

What's So Amazing About Grace?
What's So Amazing About Grace?

Review:Love this book so much! Yancey is an amazing writer. I am floored by the way he puts the concept of God's grace and the church into perspective. I highly recommend as a good read for those of the faith, or even for those considering Christianity. Read more

Contributions of Contemporary Physics and Philosophy
Contributions of Contemporary Physics and Philosophy

Review:The Part One of the book is wolderful. Much autors explain the cause of the bigbang as quantuum fluctuation and this is wrong because would be impossible quantuum fluctuations in the nothingness. The autor point this out very well and finished with this false paradigma definitely. Also the fine tunning problem of the universe is very well described in details. Thus God must have created the universe and I am not in the mind of God to know why He prefered the long term Darwinian evolution and wh... Read more

From Boardrooms to Battlefields and Churches to States
From Boardrooms to Battlefields and Churches to States

Review:This is definitely worth reading. I think many companies are beginning to realize the value of their employees and treat them as assets rather than slaves. I remember working for a large pharmaceutical company and we were "told" to increase our frequency of calls to the medical providers from once every 3 weeks to once every 2 weeks and that they were hiring another rep to be in the opposite rotation such that the providers would be called on every week. It TOTALLY BACKFIRED. We reps tried t... Read more
