Book Log: books I've read so far in Japan
7. Greater than Riches, by John White
Ongoing reading, as this is a daily devotional book with a page or so of sheer insight of God and us, gained through reflecting on Bible verses.
6. Happiness is a Choice, by Frank B. Minirth, M.D., & Paul D. Meier, M.D.
Still reading this, and want to read more. about how happy we feel is how happy we choose to be, and that when we are unhappy/depressed, we have actually fallen into the pattern of this and get some benefits from it, such as attention, habouring deep-rooted anger, and so on. Written by American authors who work at Dallas Theological Seminary and the Minirth-Meiser Psychiatric Clinic.
5. Alive and Growing, by Vernal Craig
Likening our Christian lives with nature's growth, and the four seasons. A comforting book full of wisdom that you presume is actually linked to the Bible but is not written in such a way as to be quoting passages. i'm dipping in now and again at bedtime!
4. Jane Eyre, by Charlotte Bronte
An English classic! Brillaint, loved it.
3. Love is a Decision, by Gary Smalley with John Trent, Ph.D
found on our church bookshelf
2. One on church models, found on Martins' bookshelf.
1. Title forgotten, but about raising adopted children, found on Martin's bookshelf
0. The Bible
Ongoing daily reading, I hope for the rest of my life! Brings me clarity, sense/the right way to see things, as well as get to know God, the creator of the World.
