I am in love with Francis Chan’s Crazy Love!
Are you missing it? Am I? Are we missing the reason for our lives here on earth? Chan writes with an infectious enthusiasm that makes the reader catch fire, wanting to act on God’s Word in his hot release, Crazy Love. We are challenged to take the Bible seriously and paint contemporary Christians as ‘lukewarm’ who tend to revel in the good life while ignoring the needs of others. In harsh contrast, the book offers real-life stories of believers who have given their all—time, funds, health, talents, and even their lives—in obedience to accepting Christ’s call. Here are only a few: Lucy may look like a sweet grandma to you and she is; only she once lived as a street prostitute. Today she is saved and opens her home to other young women. The Robynson Family bypasses the presents on Christmas morning to head downtown and feed the hungry.

Three supernatural gifts. Two thousand years of division. One moment of truth.
Hannah's head hung long brown hair in her eyes. Her face felt pasty with cold, fatigue, and pain. Arms behind her back, she sat in a chair, wrists, and ankles tied to the wooden frame, chair legs bolted to the floor. A cold car. A gun. Horror. Pain. Grief. Screaming. A windshield blistering with holes. Darkness.

Peter Lundell’s book Prayer Power is a guide to creating and building a prayer life. With thirty concise chapters, this book is a natural fit for a month long study. The book is divided into five broader categories while each chapter covers a different prayer element. Lundell begins by teaching readers the importance of yearning for God and a close relationship with Him through prayer. The next step leads to personal growth that will result in a more fulfilling prayer life. Prayer Power then covers using helps, internal and external. Several chapters are devoted to spiritual warfare and how that impacts prayer and our relationship with God. The concluding section pushes the reader to move out of his/her comfort zone to experience prayer in new ways.
