My Picks for Good Reads

The Red Tent by Anita Diamant
(about Dinah, a silent character in the book of Genesis)
The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Kidd
Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen
Winter Dance: The Fine Madness of Running the Iditarod by Gary Paulsen
(Nonfiction - truly very funny)
Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini

Faith Based Reads
The Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren
The Helper by Catherine Marshall
(about the Holy Spirit)
Love & Respect: The Love She Most Desires; The Respect He Desperately Needs
by Emerson Eggerichs
(I highly recommend the conference - if can't attend - read the book definitely)
Andrew Murray on Prayer by Andrew Murray
(very thick book - but a life changing study on Prayer and our relationship with God)
