i’ve read plenty of books from the “inspirational” aisle, as they call it, from the bookstore.  but being the sort of Christian that’s a bit leery of popular thought that’s more social religion (meaning it practices more of a focus on seeking societal approval to get people to follow) than traditional Biblical thought and teachings, i tend to not like to advertise anything that’s “labeled” Christian in the retail world.  it annoys me ;)  so here, i present a few of the books and resources i’ve felt have impacted my life and are of true importance!
