Anyone reading any good books? Or have any recommendations?

I've started a (non-Christian) book called The Unexpected Joy of Being Single, which is really good so far! I'm also reading (yep, two at once haha) a Christian living book by Banning Liebscher called Rooted, which is also really great!

I can recommend both my latest books in the non-fiction Christian genre.
  1. Stumbling blocks: A Lack of Knowledge - This is a general morality guide for the Christian and Christian governments. It also has 365 modern proverbs that the HS gave me in the mission field. Available now - most outlets.
  2. Twenty-First Century Prophecy Primer - This deals with prophecy from ancient times, European history and end days events. This also has 45 Bible study topics, from my sermon notes in the mission field. Available now - most outlets.
I am sorry if this seems like self promotion, but you did ask the question. :)(y)

I only read lighthearted fun stuff lately.

- “The Body Keeps The Score” by Bessel Van Der Kolk. It’s about how the body reacts to trauma and how to deal with those effects.
-“Healing the Fragmented Selves” by Janina Fischer. More trauma stuff base, in part, on Van Der Kolk’s woek but more focused on how the mind can split as a result of trauma. It’s similar to DID, but the “parts” aren’t as distinct.
-“No more Christina Nice Guy” by Paul Coughlin. Uh, being more a of person with integrity rather than being a “nice guy”.

I'm just trying to get through the backlog of books on my kindle. But at the rate I buy books, I'll never be through all the books I have yet to read.

The Kindle backlog pain is real. I just picked up a couple more books that were on sale yesterday. I will have to have Alexa read them to me while I catch up on my game backlog.

I take it that lead in sentence is satire. I mean, nothing in those titles suggests lighthearted fun. giggle.gif

I had to re-read this to make sure I got the sarcasm haha. I've actually heard the first book you mention is good and it sounds really interesting!! I might have to read it :) The other two sound good too!!

Trauma is spoken a lot on social media. So its nothing uncommon. ;)
