Simon Lucas thinks The Jesus I Never Knew is one of the best books he has read for some time
The Thinker is an eclectic collection of short articles from Roger Carswell. For those who like to be challenged in their faith in an informal way, The Thinker is a great book. It certainly gave me food for thought, and I found a challenge on almost every page.
Tim Keller’s The Prodigal God an unusually good book. I think I could recommend it to almost anyone I know and be sure they would find gold on its pages. Keller essentially takes the parable of the prodigal son from Luke 15 and explains its implications for the world while walking the reader through the story. The parable is Jesus’ most famous, and is arguably the best short story ever told. So a book purely about this parable is risky, but Keller rises admirably to the challenge, producing a book which neither cheapens the parable nor reads more into it than is actually present.
