Some great books there...
I forgot to include Clapp's "Tortured Wonders" and Fitch "Great Giveaway" off my list. Those were great books (big oversight on my part!).
I'm surprised Borg's "Heart of Chrstianity" didn't make your list. Even though you didn't agree with it, I'm sure you'd agree it was productive in helping you think through important stuff.
We should talk soon (before you got to Korea). Hope all is well...

Hey Joey....
Just a note on "Heart of Christianity", if I recall correctly we read that in the fall of 05, right. I figured the list would get too long if i included books i read in the later half of 2005. That is the only reason I left it out. I think I learn a lot from Borg, probably because I disagree with him on some things. I also found "Reading the Bible Again for the First Time", really good but I only got through some of the book. I am really looking forward to reading "Jesus" in the new year.
Happy reading...
Chris
