Wow! It has been a long time since I last posted. I have written a little but nothing “post-worthy” has been able to escape my brain. Life has been pulling me in 80 different directions lately and later this week I will board a bus and head to the nation’s capital on a band trip with my stuidents. I wanted to post something this morning because I have a window of opportunity.

Books on My Desk

The Challenge of Jesus by N.T. Wright
What a great book. Wright is the Man! In his quest to find out who Jesus really was and is Wright gives these 4 reasons for the journey: God, Scripture, Truth, Mission. He believes that the better we understand Jesusthe Son the more we understand about God the Father. Wright seeks Jesus out of a loyalty to scripture isn’t afraid of Truth. Finally, we seek Jesus because as Christians we are committed to His mission. I am accepting the Challenge

Bono: In Conversation with Michka Assayas by Michka Assayas
The Singer on his father. The Singer on Africa. The Singer on God, faith, and politics. The Singer.

These two books have been great. Look for them next week on the Best of page.
