North Carolina Synod ELCA Spirituality Committee
Recommended Books |
(updated 03/14/10 @ 23:55)
Our
mission statement is to provide
assistance to pastors
and members of congregations yearning to hear and meet God. The books we will list relate to subjects such as
Sprirituality. Most of these books are recommended by members of the Spirituality
Committee - pastors and laity. Some are authored by writers who have led our retreats in
the past, or will be our future retreat leaders. |
When
it's possible, we will provide links to book descriptions and authors. The items
listed below with authors and/or titles underlined may be clicked to access details
and further information about those listed. |
The following is a note from
Pastor Phillip - chairman of the Spirituality Committee:
"Add this book to our bibliography
of recommended books: The Shack -
"Where Tragedy Confronts Eternity" <----- (click the title) by
William P. Young. Published by Windblown Media, Los Angeles, California; 2007. This
is a must read for anyone on the spiritual journey. And I don't say that
lightly."
-----------------------
Also, we previously highlighted Ann Lamott as reverently irreverent. She tells
some wonderful stories about her faith journey and doesn't mince words with
how she came to fall in love with God.
