Dallas Willard: The Spirit of the Disciplines - Reissue : Understanding How God Changes Lives
An absolute classic. Argues persuasively and pastorally for the necessity of a disciplined inward life on the road to spritual wholeness. This book changed my life.
Tim Winton: Cloudstreet
Uniquely Australian. Funny, magical, heart-wrenching and deeply insightful - Cloudstreet takes the reader over a roller-coaster of emotions as it recounts the story of one family and its struggles to overcome.
Donald Miller: Blue Like Jazz
Full of whimsical prose, Blue Like Jazz reads just like a book should when its pages have been formed in coffee-shop coversations. Miller shares vignettes, conversations, inward musings from a life searching after God.
Mike Yaconelli: Messy Spirituality : Christianity for the Rest of Us
If you ever thought that the spiritual life was only for those with super-human levels of discipline, patience and self-control, then read this book. As the title suggests, real spirituality is lived out in the messy ordinariness of our everyday lives. Life-giving in every way.
Dr. Leonard Sweet: SoulTsunami
A wonderful, exhilarting journey into the cultural sea that the church finds itself in the 21C. Sweet's take on worship in a post-modern setting is worth the book alone.
Filled with quotable quotes, wonderful tangents and stimulating observations - SoulTsumami lingers in the mind long after it is read.
Mark Buchanan: Your God Is Too Safe
Discovered Mark Buchanan recently. Best read slowly and prayerfully.
Tim Winton: Breath: A Novel
Love Tim Winton. I should love this.
Cormac McCarthy: The Road (Oprah's Book Club)
An absolute ripper! Winner of the 2007 Pulitzer Prize, this is a haunting but in the end, beautiful book.

Daniel found himself resident in a world that lived as if God did not exist. It was a world of many gods but one that did not acknowledge the one true God. How was he to live? How are we to live 2500 years later in a world that is similar in so many ways? Listen in...Download daniel_one.mp3
