I think the current book [for Christian apologetics] is by Lee Strobel, its called A Case for Christ.

I really enjoyed reading the writings of Fredrick Buechner, I havent read anything by him in probably a decade but about 20 years ago I read four or five books of his and it helped me.

You are never more like Jesus than when you pray for others. Pray for this hurting world.

Anger is the noise of the soul; the unseen irritant of the heart; the relentless invader of silence.

God sees us with the eyes of a Father. He sees our defects, errors and blemishes. But He also sees our value.

You are who God says you are. Spiritually alive. Heavenly positioned. Connected to the Father. A billboard of mercy. An honored child.

Grace is God as heart surgeon, cracking open your chest, removing your heart - poisoned as it is with pride and pain - and replacing it with his own.
