Book Recommendations


This past year, we have been reading through the devotional: Common Prayer: A Liturgy for Ordinary Radicals, compiled by Shane Claiborne, Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove, and Enuma Okoro.  It has been a great way to start each day, and we both would encourage others to go through it.  It is a refreshing combination of ancient and new.



We also both recently completed the book Chasing the Dragon by Jackie Pullinger.  This book tells the true story of a missionary woman who worked with gang members in the slums of Hong Kong.  It is an incredible page-turning story that shows how the work of the Holy Spirit and the power of prayer transformed an entire community.  If you need to be reminded of God’s might and ability to change lives, this is a great read.
