Book Recommendations

Since I read a lot, I have been asked to recommend some books that I've enjoyed reading. If your preference is fiction, you'll have to ask my wife, Claudia. I read mostly non-fiction. Rather than doing one book recommendation or review at a time, let me first recommend several authors. I have read a number of books over the years by Dr. Charles Swindoll, Dr. James Dobson, Max Lucado and Dr. John Maxwell. I would highly recommend any of their books to you. I've been blessed by every book I've read from these four authors.

I would also highly recommend to you a great book called Rediscovering God in America by Newt Gingrich. This book gives the reader a fascinating spiritual tour and the influences of Christianity that are inscribed in buildings in Washington, D.C. such as the Washington Monument, the Jefferson Memorial, the Lincoln Memorial, the U.S. Capitol Building, the Library of Congress and Arlington National Cemetery. Mr. Gingrich and his wife have also produced a video that visually demonstrates the same information that is in the book. I wish every school in our nation would share this information with their students. I would also encourage Christian parents to educate their children about these important aspects of our history by sharing what is included in this book and video.

I loved that book. I also recommend the work of this pastor in protesting the secularization of some of things Newt discussed in his book.
