Review:I enjoyed reading about notable Christians of the past, some I am familiar with and others not. I did, however, find my mind wandering as I was still reading the words. I wouldn't say I would recall very well what I read for the most part. Read more

Review:The book, "Barking to the Choir" is a spectacularly moving book. I wrote notes on many of the pages as I read the book. In fact, I was so mesmerized, I purchased five more copies to give to others. The messages of the book deeply reached me personally and for the work that I do. Read more

Review:It was very interesting, especially the 5 purposes of the church and how there needs to be balance of all five for a church to thrive.
