Great Reads For Christmas!

I've been reading a ton lately and recommend three great books. They might not be Nobel or Pulitzer material, but the message in each is well worth the read!

Crazy Love by Francis Chan

If you're a Christian and need your butt-kicked, then this one will do the job quite nicely. Read it and be scared... and inspired at the same time.




Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers
If you're a woman and love the 1800's and want to read a great romance novel that is tasteful (non-pornographic), pick this one up. I love this period of history and although it has a bit of a slow start, once it gets going, you won't want to put it down!





Safely Home by Randy Alcorn
If you're in need of a follow-up to the aforementioned butt-kicker, then this is a great read about the persecuted church in China. Another slow starter, I'm about half way through this substantial read and again, I can't put it down! It helps if you enjoy learning about other cultures or have an interest in China (like I do!) - but even if you don't, after reading even a 1/4 of this book, one becomes keenly aware of just how precious our freedom really is.
