Book of the Week

Unfortunately, I didn't get to finish Driscoll's book this past week on my Disney trip. I'll finish it soon though.
This week's book is one that I've read several times, but I'm reading it again because our youth small groups are going through it together: Don't Waste Your Life by John Piper.

I love the book, and I think its a great book for young people.

As far as reviewing Vintage Jesus by Driscoll, I've found it to be like a humorous Christology book. In other words, its not much different than taking a theology course with a focus on Christology, except that he adds humor to it. I haven't found it to be extremely enlightening, however I do think it would be a good book for group study in a church as a way to introduce good theology in a reader-friendly way.

As for Disney, the Yeti ride at Animal Kingdom was the best. I think its called Expedition Everest.

Interesting...I just picked Driscoll's book up today and I'm anxious to give it a try...sounds like a good option for a summer small group Bible study maybe?

Wes, I definitely agree with you on "Don't Waste Your Life." That's been a great read for me too over and over again. Hey, glad you had a great trip. And thanks again for having us for Spiritual Emphasis at Gaston Christian. We always love being back there with you guys. Blessings bro.
