For those of you who like a good fictional read like I do, I highly recommend Ted Dekker’s The Circle Trilogy. The trilogy is a high paced epic that keeps you on the edge of your seat. It has all the elements of a good story. Suspense. War. Loss. Betrayal. Love and redemption.
Thomas Hunter, the main character in the book, finds himself living between two realities. When he dreams in one world he wakes up in another. Throughout the course of the book he learns the significance of both realities, how they are interconnected, and the role that he is to play in the epicenter of both realities.
Definitely a good read!

I’m reading this great, thought-provoking, parenting book called Loving your kids on Purpose by Danny Silk. It has many great thoughts in it along the “Love and Logic” lines, but is taking it about 5 steps further for me. I’m hoping my husband will read it along with me so we can have some good discussions.
I’ve started reading three other books, but I do this sometimes…start some books, then get annoyed that I’m reading too many, then just finish one at a time from there. Maybe I should blog about the book and see if I can get any discussion started there. Hum.
As always I am reading muliple books simultaneously. The Bible, Shipping News by Annie Proulx, and I just finished “My Enemy’s Cradle”. A historic fiction book set during World War II. I also concluded “Slumdog Millionaire”, which won the Academy Award for best picture this year. I have not seen the movie, but found the book very interesting. India is a fascinating place which I can not get my brain around. Great wealth and starvation living side by side, and stepping around each other. A nation that needs Christ.
I love how books expose us to ideas, people and places that I would other never know.
