6 Books to Consider for the Reader You Need to Buy For

12/11/2015

Christmas is officially two weeks away, and that means many of us are considering gift ideas for others in our lives. If you're looking for ideas for the "reader" you know, here are six suggestions. Each of these suggestions has been recently published (in the last 2-3 years) and will be linked to an Amazon page where you can learn more. You'll see they're listed under 6 categories that I try and stay loosely tethered to:

Bible & Theology

Taking God at His Word: Why the Bible is Knowable, Necessary, and Enough, and What that Means for You and Me (by Kevin DeYoung) For a short review I did of this book, click here.

Discipleship

Awe: Why It Matters for Everything We Think, Say, and Do (by Paul David Tripp)

Relationships

Side by Side: Walking with Others in Wisdom and Love (by Edward T. Welch)

Culture

Onward: Engaging the Culture without Losing the Gospel (by Russell Moore)

Leadership

What's Best Next: How the Gospel Transforms the Way You Get Things Done (by Matt Perman)

Biography

J.I. Packer: An Evangelical Life (by Leland Ryken)

What other books (in any of these categories listed above) would you suggest people consider? List 'em here!

The Heavenly Man is a great autobiography by one of the leaders of the Chinese home church movement. It's very humbling to see what they will go through to follow Christ, how precious the Word is to them, and how much scripture they memorize because they don't know when their Bible might be confiscated. And how God was with them during the darkest moments.

I was really stressed by Erectile dysfunction issues and had consulted Dr Moses Buba. He gave us a thorough consultation and the medicines were equally effective. In a couple of weeks there was big improvement in me and we are very pleased with the progress. We cannot thank Dr Moses Buba enough. Highly recommended.
