Living as a Christian: Teachings from First Peter – A.W. Tozer, edited by James L. Snyder Regal BooksIn this never-before published collection of teachings on 1 Peter, adapted from sermons given to his parishioners, Tozer examines what it means to call oneself a “Christian.” In his view, to be a recipient of God’s salvation is to become “the pride of all heaven,” indestructible and able to withstand anything and everything that seeks to undermine one’s faith. The epistle of 1 Peter was written to a group of just such Christians, to encourage them to live in the center of God’s redeeming love. Through Tozer’s incomparable teaching and commentary, this ancient letter becomes a fresh and life-infusing admonition for today’s Christian!

Sounds like great books! It’s cool to see that you rep romances. For some reason I’d thought you didn’t.
I’ve heard alot about these authors and hopefully will get to check out their books soon. Thanks for the info.
Steve, one of the things I enjoy about your blog is that you always provide a snapshot of what’s going on the industry, but you also add your perspective which comes from a place of optimism. I’m thankful you’re not an alarmist and instead choose to be a sensible guiding light.
