VT Christian Reading Challenge discussion

I'm stuck with this one, looking for something good and worthwhile! Any ideas please?

None that I've actually read yet, but I'm going to read Crazy Love: Overwhelmed by a Relentless God by Francis Chan because I've been wanting to read something by him. At some point I'd also like to read Peace Child: An Unforgettable Story of Primitive Jungle Treachery in the 20th Century by Don Richardson because I've heard good things about it (though that would also count as "Book by or about a missionary.")

Thanks Laura! I'll check the Francis Chan book out, haven't read any of his!

I actually wanted to find something creative for this instead of just going with the cliche "Love" in the title, because that would be too easy, but I searched and searched and could find nothing that interested me. There just aren't that many books with "Patience" or "Self-Control" or any of the others in the title. I ended up just giving up and I'll pick a book with Love in it: I'm planning one of Gary Chapman's "Love Languages" books, or maybe a marriage book with love in the title.

Although "Peace Child" is a good option that I hadn't thought of.

Couple more:
Surprised by Joy, by CS Lewis
Peace Like a River, by Leif Enger (a GOOD read!)

My choice was a little unconventional, but I had been wanting to read this book: The Short and Tragic Life of Robert Peace: A Brilliant Young Man Who Left Newark for the Ivy League

Humility: True Greatness by C.J. Mahaney is a great little read!

I just got the book "The Joy of Less: Discovering your inner Minnimalist" for free on Amazon Kindle: http://www.amazon.com/Joy-less-Discov...

Thanks for the suggestion of Peace Child. I was going to read that for my book by or about a missionary, but there were some other books that I was hoping to put into that category instead. Now i can read both!
