reading

books caryn is reading these days....
for women only by shaunti feldhahn
isaiah by God (through the prophet isaiah... for a women's study)
let the nations be glad by john piper

books caryn would like to be reading, but isn't (or has started recently, but stopped for lack of time, intelligence, or motivation):
the divine conspiracy by dallas willard (read the prologue & loved it, so...)
church history in plain language by bruce l. shelley (read various chapters that looked interesting, but we musn't be selective with history)
(anything) by george macdonald (especially his children's books, but she needs to find them*)
ruthless trust by brennan manning (needs to read it.... again)
... if anyone has any time, motivation, or intelligence they would like to share, she would gladly receive it.

oh! and maybe with your encouragement, mike will compile a similar list (though he is terribly busy right now, in his defense).

*she could download some for free on www.gutenberg.org, but hasn't yet.
