Books and Stuff
This last month in my spare time I've been working through a couple of different books. Both of them are pretty good and challenging to my relationship with God. First, I've been reading John Piper's When I Don't Desire God: How to Fight for Joy. I've utterly enjoyed it. Piper gives us a great approach to understanding spiritual disciplines that's not legalistic. I've learned alot from it and feel challenged to memorize more Scripture.
I've also been reading Mark Noll's The Rise of Evangelicalism: The Age of Edwards, Whitefield, and the Welseys. This book is a thoughtful study of the Great Awakening in the 18th century. I highly recommended it, especially if you're a church history fan.
Oh, by the way, Switchfoot has a new album coming out soon and you can listen to pieces of it on their website. It sounds really good. I can't wait 'til it's released. Jon Foreman is a great songwriter. Each album that they've written seems better than the last. I hope that they can do it another. Beautiful Letdown was an amazing album.

Daniel,
It was awesome hanging with you and shelly. Micah loves his Buzz Lightyear. I hope I didn't scare you too much with my love for the sacramental church traditions. I haven't lost my faith. I'm finding it.
Levi,
It's always good to talk to you. Thanks for coming up to visit us. I hope that you enjoyed that article in CT.
Long time, no talk. Happy Reformation Day!!!
