Books in brief: Tim Keller on the Psalms and Sven Birkert on the Internet

Last updated on: November 10, 2015 at 4:34 pm By Mission:Work

We know you like lists of books around here, and an interesting one showed up on The Gospel Coalition a few days ago. Not all the books are in the faith/work/discipleship/culture-shaping orbit we center around on this blog, but there are several worth checking out, including a daily devotional by Tim Keller and some musings on what the Internet is doing to our brains: Tim Keller, The Songs of Jesus: A Year of Daily Devotions in the Psalms (Viking) This book is...

Burning brakes and selling books: taking faith and work on the road

Last updated on: November 10, 2015 at 4:34 pm By Byron Borger

What an adventure we recently had, complete with burning brakes and selling books at three different off site venues. As you probably know, our bookstore is in a small town. We attend a medium size church of the mainline variety. Our customers come in all sorts, and we love the mix of folks that show up here day by day. Amy, one of our long- standing employees, greeted lots of local folks at the Christmas in Dallastown event this past... Read more

Top 10 books on faith and work

Last updated on: November 2, 2015 at 1:54 pm By Institute for Faith, Work, and Economics

Just stumbled on this list from our friends over at the Institute for Faith, Work, and Economics, compiled by Hugh Whelchel, who is himself an author of a book on faith and work. Hugh says, In a previous post, we recommended ten books for people beginning to explore economics. Economics needs context, however. Today I’d like to recommend ten books on integrating faith, work, and culture. They are all rooted in solid theology. Many of the concepts we’ve discussed on... Read more

Not work-life balance but abundant life: The Vulnerable Pastor by Mandy Smith

Last updated on: November 11, 2015 at 2:07 pm By Jennifer Woodruff Tait

This post is part of a Patheos Book club roundtable on The Vulnerable Pastor. I approached this book with some trepidation. I went to seminary in the mid 1990s, when the terminology that was all the rage (at least at my seminary) was that of the wounded healer. The famous book by Henri Nouwen that explained Carl Jung’s thought on this to the masses was several decades old by then (it came out in 1972) but its effects were still... Read more

This diverse gathering serves ordinary lawyers, judges, law professors and law students helping them think faithfully about their callings in the field of law. A big seller there is Michael...

Best Books for Business: The Power of No

Last updated on: November 2, 2015 at 12:31 pm By The High Calling

By Cheryl Smith; part of a series at TheHighCalling.org called “Best Books for Business.” Stay tuned for more! I currently have four books and a Kindle on my nightstand, and I’m pretty sure there’s at least one book in every room of our house. Yet I don’t consider myself an avid reader.
