The supernatural power of a transformed mind – Bill Johnson

This is another excellent “paradigm shifting” book by Bill Johnson. The chapters are headed as follows:

- changing your mind, becoming the dwelling place of God, Revelation and understanding, understanding Is an experience, becoming students of miracles, guilt-free and forgiven, remembering, enduring uncertainty, learning from your body, dreaming with God, inheriting the supernatural.

This is a very worthwhile read indeed.

The Radical Reformission – Mark Driscoll

This is a great book and records the approach of the Mars Hills church in Seattle to impacting the unchurched. It is a great challenge to those of us who have grown up in the church.

This present darkness – Frank Peretti

This is an excellent piece of fiction that encourages believers to fight the good fight. It highlights the spiritual environment we are living in and creates an awareness of the power of prayer.

Christian Apologetics – Norman L. Geisler

This is an excellent book for those wanting to learn a bit about philosophy and how “reasonable” our faith is.

Caution – In recommending this book I’m not wanting to elevate debate as the main way to win those who don’t know Jesus. We always want people to have and ENCOUNTER with Jesus. We may win an argument, but lose a friend. The strongest argument only wins, until another more “convincing” argument comes along.

This book is a great faith builder, and helps us think clearly as christians. It is an academic read, but still worth the effort.

The Jesus I never knew – Philip Yancey

This books helps to take away our pious, know-it-all attitude on who Jesus was. He helps us see Jesus and the Heart of God in an amazing way. This book has been heralded as “the best book about Jesus this century”.

The Anointing – R.T. Kendall

This is a great book for those wanting to get a good biblical understanding of the anointing.

What’s so Amazing about Grace – Philip Yancey

This is a must read for all christians. It gives us a greater insight to Grace and helps us understand our religious UNgrace at times. It is a very easy read with great and challenging stories.
