Unchristian

I can sincerely say, that I my heart and mind have been radically challenged in a good way thanks to a book called "Unchristian" by David Kinnaman and Gabe Lyons, christian researches form the Barna group that dove into society only to discover what people really think about Christianity. I could go into an hour discussion about this book, but here are some things to think about.

"Jesus used strong language, but who was he most likely to offend? Religiously arrogant people, not outsiders."

"You change a country not merely by bolstering its laws but by transforming the hearts of people."

James 1:26- "If you claim to be religious but don't control your tongue, you are fooling yourself, and your religion is worthless."


Now to other books that need to be checked off the Summer Reading List:

Drop Like Stars- Rob Bell
Tale of Two Cities- Charles Dickinson
Kaplan GMAT
101 Most Influential People Who Never Lived
Various Backpacking Books to inspire Summer 2011 Ideas
