I heard a quote the other day that stopped me in my tracks. It was very simple. It was something I believe that I already knew. The more I have thought about it the more of an impact it has. I pray that it always will. I intend to share this quote in a post at a later time with some application.
In the meantime, this quote has caused me to change what I am reading. Last week, I wrote that I was going to review the book Simple Life. That has changed. Instead, I have begun a reread of a book that I read a year or so ago. This book is entitled Surprising Insights from the Unchurched. I expect and believe this book will have an entirely different meaning. Also, I will be offering a review of this book as well.
I am embarking on something new to me. I am going to write my first book review. Understand, this is not a critique. Who am I to critique another author when I have not authored. One of my favorite authors is Thom Rainer, President of Lifeway Christian Resources. He writes with such passion about the church, the unchurched, and the pursuit of Christ that his books, to me, are addicting. He even has a way of making books based on research and numbers challenge you in your Christian walk, especially if you are a leader.
