Book 3/48: Everything Must Change by Brian McLaren

everything must change

OK, so in the past month I have started a new job, almost finished a renovation on our basement, and tried to balance being a pastor…so I am a little behind on the book front. Will I get to 48 this year? Time will tell. In the meantime here is the most recent book i have finished. Everything Must Change by Brian Mclaren.

I will give it a ranking of 4.5/5 in the category of relevance for today’s church communities. It did an amazing job of bringing to life the major issues in this world and the way in which Jesus has spoken into each of these as found in the bible. It also makes a great case for how we must address them as churches not only because we are commanded to, but also for the benefit of what it would mean for our world.

I highly recommend this book for the reader with a high social conscience, and pretty much anyone who calls themselves a Christian and wants to truly follow the ways of Jesus in light of the major issues in the world. Thats a bold endorsement, but you will know what I mean if you read it.

New Blogger: Cato tries her luck at blogging

Believe it or not, but my coworker has decided to blog. After reading a few posts I am starting to believe that she might actually keep it up. But that is yet to be determined. Her first attempt through photos, has been quite successful…but two?

Now that I have slammed her (mainly for her criticism of blogging, and that now she has two), I have to say that have been enjoying her posts. Well thought out ideas about life, church and culture. It’s about time we had something online to read about church from a women and a Filipino one at that!

At this rate I can’t wait till she joins facebook…heh
