Fun to Read

Mike Lupica

Philomel, 2007

Hoop-hoop-hoop!
As a Language Arts teacher, I am always searching for books that will get my young male charges into reading, especially those kids who think that athletes don't need to be able to read to succeed. Telling them this just doesn't work, but getting them to read things ...

Mardy Grothe

Comeback Churches: How 300 Churches Turned Around and Yours Can, Too

Ed Stetzer, Mike Dodson

B&H Books, 2007

Very Good
I've read many books on church growth/church health, and this one is near the top of my list. Although there are many commendable points made, my favorite is the authors' "Missional Matrix." In it they assert there must be a biblical grounding in Christology, ...

Philomel, 2007

Two-Minute Drill: Mike Lupica's Comeback Kids
This is a very good book, my son is finishing it right now, it seems he appreciates sports more as a result of the book, and also that there is a tie into the sciences. Very well written, as an adult, I'm also going to read it. Well done Mike Lupica, thanks for ...

If you're the person who never has a comeback for a pitiful "Yo mama" joke a friend told, then you need this. Impress all your friends by making them think that you actually made up the comebacks yourself. At least that's what I do.

Comeback: Conservatism That Can Win Again

David Frum

Doubleday, 2007

Conservatism needs new thinking
Unlike one reviewer whose opinion is posted here, I have read the book. It is a very interesting critique of the recent drift in conservative thought. As Frum points out, most of the battles from the 1970s have been won. Crime, out of control in 1974 when the movie ...
