I've Been Tagged . . . Unfortunately

Scot McKnight tagged me so I will play the game. I must admit, I don’t like these kinds of games. I can never think of good answers and I spend too much time racking my brain trying to come up with intelligent answers. My wife loves to ask questions and she even has one of those books that has like a million questions—I hate it! Here it goes:

1. One book that changed your life: Search for Significance by Robert McGee. I read it when I was in college and it really helped me deal with my personal baggage of divorce, abuse, and insecurity.

2. One book that you’ve read more than once: Spiritual Leadership by J. Oswald Sanders.

3. One book you’d want on a desert island: Bible.

4. One book that made you laugh: I can’t think of one.

5. One book that made you cry: D-Day by Stephen Ambrose.

6. One book you wish had been written: 1,000,001 Questions—It’s not really a book, but you know those question books—I don’t like them.

7. One book you wish had never been written: I can’t think of one.

8. One book you’re currently reading: The Secret Message of Jesus by B. Mclaren.

9. One book you’ve been meaning to read: The Politics of Jesus by Yoder.

Hey Joel - I did this particular meme last month - check it.

It was great meeting you at ETS last year, and good to see you blogging!

Joel,
I liked Sanders' 'Spiritual Leadership' too! You should try next Richard Baxter's 'The Reformed Pastor'.
