15 Books That Will Stick With You
Andy's Posts, Random Thoughts, Uncategorized - June 18th, 2009 Add commentsMy friend Matt sent out a facebook note asking people to send back 15 books that you’ve read that will “stick with you” - After replying to that, Bri urged me to post them on here because I’ve been neglectful of the ol’ Holloblog lately. So here they are…some old, some new, some tried, some true. Some probably included becuase of what they’ve brought me “to” either spiritually or intellectually, or where they’ve brought me from..and some just plain fun, with no great impact on either
1. The Bible
2. Mere Christianity
3. Don’t Waste Your Life
4. The Great Divorce
5. The Imitation of Christ
6. The Screwtape Letters
7. A Tale of three Kings: A Study in Brokenness
8. Harry Potter Series
9. The Chronicles of Narnia
10. The Lost World
11. Under the Banner of Heaven: A Story of Violent Faith
12. Congo
13. The Problem of Pain
14. Jesus and the Victory of God (Christian Origins and the Question of God, Volume 2)
15. Blue Like Jazz: Nonreligious Thoughts on Christian Spirituality
I’m sure there are some forgotton, but one of the rules was ones you could think of or remember in 15 minutes! Feel free to reply with some of your favs even if you don’t have 15 to type.

Thanks for the book suggestions Andy. I ordered The Great Divorce and started it today. I haven’t really read any CS Lewis because I didn’t care for the Narnia books as a child-too scary! I will think about books and list them on our blog
