Hello Doug,
I use to go to Redwood, so good to hear about Redwood happenings from the MacMasters and your blog. Yes, have read Don’s latest book, lucky you that you got to see him live. Is he as good in person as on the written page? Great book so far, only do we sometime focus too much on making our own story for our own vain glory? Should our stories not be a patch in a large patchwork quilt of all of our stories? But he does address that in his book, about inviting people into our stories and vice versa. Anyhow, hope all is well!

Great list! Agree with all…haven’t read the first one though…so I’m ordering that today and putting it on your credit card! sEriously bud, great list! I just finished plowing through Tangible Kingdom on my blog…great read! Aaron and I are praying for some $$ to come for a visit…I’ll keep you in the loop. We pray for you and Redwood all the time! Keep Aaron in prayer though…he needs to get out of BMW and get back into ministry!

In Jesus,
your Idaho pal,
Robin

I just heard Donald Miller in Victoria speaking about his new book/journey “A Million Miles in A Thousand Years.” I’m about half way through the book and finding it very helpful. His big question in the book is “when the credits roll at the end of your life will people like your movie or say it sucks.” He shares helpful advice on how to live a good story by following the guidelines used in creating story. BTW – the background to his book is what he learned about his life while editing a movie about his life. Very orignal and thought provoking.

Rob Bell’s “Jesus wants to save Christians” is pretty good…if you like Rob.

As far as classics, I just read Paul Tillich’s “My Search for Absolutes.” Excellent. But then, I’m a liberal so….maybe read it under the cover of night.

Hope all is well Doug.
