Hello all. I didn't notice a thread for this topic yet so I decided to create one.

I would love to know what books everyone is reading/has read that are impacting your walk with God.
Note: These are works of literature that are not the Bible or "Devotionals" that only include scripture.

Here are some questions that can be answered, but feel free to branch out away from these exact questions:

What are some of the most thought provoking books you've read?
What moved you about them?

Do you have a favorite Christian Author?

Feel free to include a Review of a book you have read (positive or negative, but please include why)

Feel free to include most impacting quotes you've read (please include Title, and Author)

Here are some of my recommendations:

1.
Purpose Driven Life : What on Earth Am I Here for?
by Rick Warren
Quotes:
“Humility is not thinking less of yourself; it is thinking of yourself less. Humility is thinking more of others.”
“You weren't put on earth to be remembered. You were put here to prepare for eternity.”

2.
Love Dare (From Movie: FireProof)
by Alex and Stephen Kendrick
This 40-Day journey equips you to melt hardened, separated hearts into an enduring love that can withstand the flames of fear, pride and temptation.
Quote:
"Never leave your partner—
especially in a fire."

3.
Chicken Soup for the Soul
by Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen.
a series of books, usually featuring a collection of short, inspirational stories and motivational essays. [not really Christian book, but the story is really inspirative]

Hello, luv.

Is there a book that is similar to 'Love Dare' but one that's for single adults?
Like..a book that helps you to do daily activities/has a 30+ day journey or something similar that involves Christianity?

Dear Crissy,
Sorry for the late reply. sweatdrop

If you want Christian activity, how about a 40 days online challenge?
http://www.40days.net/welcome.htm
It involves more activities, eg praying, blessing, serving.

Personally, Purpose Driven Life is a 40 days challenge that I recommend. heart
Its daily activity is to think of changes you can make. It looks simple, but by applying it step by step, the impact is great. smile
