pickRich Mullins was a Christian musician in the 80s/90s, who died in a car accident in 1997. This book, written by a good friend of his a few years later, is an odd sort of biography. It doesn't really outline his life or career, but rather looks at key aspects of Rich's faith and beliefs through his lyrics and writing. I grew up on Rich's music and it definitely has shaped the way I view God and His love; Rich's lyrics still can hit me sideways ⬇
This book was given to me years ago as a gift from a fellow LibraryThing member. It‘s not until now that I started reading this memoir, but reading about Reb Albert Lewis is turning into a comfort read for me during these turbulent times.

pickBass reflects on the many facets of Jesus as she shares bits from her own spiritual life. Sort of a combination of memoir, theology, and mysticism. It focuses on those experiential ways that Jesus interacts with us and guides us, leading to a more encompassing view of Jesus.
bailedI‘m sure this is a perfectly good story. It had potential, but I couldn‘t get past the 1st 2 hours of brutality when listening to
There are just some days when this book is exactly what I need. Calming, thoughtful, and thought-provoking. I am really enjoying taking my time and truly savoring it.

📖 Simply Christian: Why Christianity Makes Sense by N. T. Wright
pickSince I‘m a born muslim I would say that a lot of messages were already clear to me.
If I was a revert or someone who is simply interested in the core messages of Islam then I would recommend it for sure! But it was also refreshing for me and it gave me a kinda new perspective on some stuff.

so-soI listened to this last weekend for St Patrick‘s Day. It was interesting to learn how Guinness began and even more how it influenced culture and made things better related to health and hygiene in Ireland. However, the author was like a full-fledged cheerleader of constant praise for the Guinness family. You learn at the end that the family has quite the history of suing authors….that may have played a part in the tone and content of the book
