There are few times when I am not reading one or more books. And I want to pass along my latest favorite books to you with my highest recommendations.
* The Language of God, by Dr. Francis S. Collins. Dr. Collins was the head of the Human Genome Project, and is one of the world’s leading scientists. And Dr. Collins is a man of unshakable faith in God and the Scripture. His book takes the reader through modern science and how it can fit with belief in God and the Bible. He also documents his path from atheism to faith. I highly recommend this book.
* What In the World Is Going On?: 10 Prophetic Clues You Cannot Afford to Ignore, by David Jeremiah. This book is absolutely up to the minute with current news, but most important, it ties today’s headlines to the essential 10 most important Bible prophecies. This is an important book for anyone who watches the headlines with an eye toward our place in the end times.
* Understanding the Purpose and Power of Prayer, by Dr. Myles Munroe. Dr. Munroe presents an essential path to powerful and effective prayer and answers practical questions about communicating with God.

Recommended Reading
In If you’re looking for books to help you in your walk with Christ, here are some recent recommendations from my personal bookshelf.
I Told the Mountain to Move, by Patricia Raybon. With painfully honest and captivating writing, Patricia Raybon takes readers on her journey from lukewarm Christianity to a thrilling and powerful relationship with Christ. She starts her journey out of disillusionment by focusing on prayer. She vows to learn as Richard Foster describes, the “real” way to pray: to “Pray so things healed. Pray so things stopped. Pray so things started. Pray so things changed.” She learns not only how to pray with power, but also how to mend a broken life. Highly recommended.
The Power of Your Words: How God Can Bless Your Life Through the Words You Speak, by Robert Morris. If you think that what you say is expendable both for yourself and those around you, think again. In The Power of Your Words, Morris provides solid Biblical evidence that the words you speak are either a blessing or a curse, and they always have a consequence. By the end of the book, you’ll know “Oh, how much your words matter.”
What Your Do Best in the Body of Christ: Discover Your Spiritual Gifts, Personal Style, and God-Given Passion, by Bruce Bugbee. In this practical and highly readable book, Bugbee provides a sequence of text and evaluation tools to help you discover what you do best as a Christian and within the Church. He guides you to find God’s purpose for your life, your spiritual gifts, personal style, and your passion.
