One Book Meme


Okay, so Ben Myers has created the One Book Meme. Which is kind of fun. Well, for bookish people, anyway. Here goes:

1. One book that changed your life:
Henri J.M. Nouwen, The Return of the Prodigal Son: A Story of Homecoming

2. One book that you’ve read more than once:
Brennan Manning, Abba's Child: The Cry of the Heart for Intimate Belonging

3. One book you’d want on a desert island:
Eugene Peterson, Christ Plays in Ten Thousand Places: A Conversation in Spiritual Theology

4. One book that made you laugh:
Joseph Heller, Catch-22

5. One book that made you cry:
Elie Wiesel, Dawn

6. One book that you wish had been written:
Paul of Tarsus, The Truth about the Eucharist

7. One book that you wish had never been written:
John Piper, Desiring God

8. One book you’re currently reading:
Hm. Yes, well, about that...

9. One book you’ve been meaning to read:
Irenaus of Lyons, Against the Heresies

10. Now tag five people: Alan, Josh, Katie, Chris, Jared.

Booyah!

My Commitments:


Saint Patrick's Church



"The Church claims to be the most comprehensive human society there is - the new human race in embryo. And it claims this because of its belief that it is established not by any human process grounded in and limited by events, cultures and so on, but by God's activity."
- Rowan Williams
