Mr. Keller is very good at bringing to life the shepherds view as expressed in the 23rd Psalm. He is personally aquainted with the Eastern way of sheep ranching, which of couse is the method employed and understood by David, the psalms writer. More than just being insightful into the shepherds mind-..

A Response to Our Trivializing Age (
User
Rating
: 50/50
)
This is a great book, an antidote to the trivializing spirit of our age. I would especially recommend it for new Christians and non-Christians. The book is about 200 pages long, divided into ten chapters, and its easy to read. Its a sort of shortened, more accessible version of Desiring God. Those w..

Iliad and Odyssey Gift Set (Penguin Classics) |
This is a boxed gift edition of Fagless two widely acclaimed translations of Homer. The Iliad is typically described as one of the greatest war stories of all time, but to call it a war story does not begin to describe the emotional sweep of its action and characters: Achilles, Helen, Hector, and other heroes of Greek myth and history in the 10th and final year of the Greek siege of Troy. The Odyssey is, quite simply, the story of Odysseus, who wants to go home. But Poseidon, god of oceans, doesnt want him to make it back across the wine-dark sea to his wife, Penelope, son, Telemachus, and their high-roofed home at Ithaca.

A good premise, but ethnocentric and limited. (
User
Rating
: 30/50
)
The premise of this book is simple: respect your fear and trust your intuition, and you will be safer. Its excellent advice. However, thats all the book provides. There are no strategies for self-protection, no tips to making oneself less attractive to criminals. The emphasis is on reacting to the t..
