I have these books on my Kindle and I’m slowly working through them. I just finished up the Steve Jobs biography and found myself surprised at how much I dislike the man and how little respect I have for him. Great accomplishments in business aside, Issacson did paint an awful picture of Steve Jobs that seems to be well deserved. In any case, these are the next 5 on the queue.
What is the Mission of the Church? Kevin De Young [2011]
Sermons on the Card. Hugh Latimer. [1485-1555]
The World-Tilting Gospel. Dan Phillips [2011]
The First Blast of the Trumpet Against the Monstrous Regiment of Women. John Knox [ 1514 – 1572]
The Imitation of Christ. Thomas A Kempis. [1380-1471]
I also have a strange fascination with wanting to know more about Jobs even though he was brilliantly selfish and godless. I will read the book (birthday present next month), and will also not like him much at all as a result.
You will not go wrong with DeYoung/Gilbert’s book which I am also reading. It is excellent thus far.
I also have Dan’s book in the queue.
Not sure I have the acumen for the other two books you mention. Let us know if you like them.
thanks. will do
Well now i feel dumb. I’m busy reading Philipa Gregory, and J.K Rowling.
