Currently Reading: Faith Reads: A Selective Guide to Christian Nonfiction It's a...BOOK!
After 9 months of consistent reading of hundreds of books and annotating them, Dave has finally birthed "Faith Reads"...his first book!!
I'm so proud of him! I really didn't know when it would arrive...it wasn't on my mind at all Monday morning. Alyssa entered the room with a box she had "found on our doorstep". I asked her who it was from...after a little searching, she read "Greenwood Publishing". (Deep sigh) "Oh. my. goodness! It's Daddy's book!!" Lots of shrills and leaping about ensued...we were all so excited! I didn't know I'd be so happy to see it :) But I am...
In case you're wondering what kind of book it is...it's a bibliography of Christian Non-fiction, a reference book to find books written by Christians on almost every topic you can think of. It's a first of it's kind. Although it'll be sold mainly to libraries, I think it would be a wonderful tool for any Christian. If you've ever walked into a library or bookstore and were clueless as to what to read, then thought you'd like a book on...say, home decorating...written by a Christian...but didn't know how to find that and neither did the librarian or book store clerk, then this book would be your friend.
And...if you're as excited about it as we are...please tell everyone about it. You may even ask your local bookstore or library if they have it yet! Thanks in advance if you do!

CONGRATULATIONS!!! It sounds like it would be very beneficial- especially at the Christian Bookstore...when your searching for a specific type of book. Neato! I hope you all celebrated well! :)
That's so awesome, congratulations to you all!
FELICITATIONS, DAVID!! What an accomplishment and what a blessing to those of the faith! Can't wait to see it. Will try to order soon.

Hello Mrs. Eagles,
You made your site simple yet elegant. The pictures are a nice touch. I see that God is foremost in your mind as you go about your daily activities. Now is a good time! I recommend the one true God, Jehovah.
I want to help people to really get to know God, especially in these troubled times. Here is an important message for all of us from the Bible: 44 "In the time of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed, nor will it be left to another people. It will crush all those kingdoms and bring them to an end, but it will itself endure forever. (Daniel 2:44) (NIV)
