I just got one of my seminar’s reading list. Here are the books on the list:
- Harris, Sam. The End of Faith: Religion, Terror, and the Future of Reason. London: Free Press, 2006.
- Hirsch, Alan. The Forgotten Ways: Reactivating the Missional Church. Grand Rapids, MI: Brazos Press, 2006.
- Oord, Thomas Jay, and Michael E. Lodahl. Relational Holiness: Responding to the Call of Love. Kansas City, Mo.: Beacon Hill Press of Kansas City, 2005.
- Pongracz, Patricia, Wayne L. Roosa, and Museum of Biblical Art. The Next Generation: Contemporary Expressions of Faith. Grand Rapids, Mich. New York N.Y.: William B. Eerdmans Pub. ; Museum of Biblical Art, 2005.
- Rollins, Peter. How (Not) to Speak of God: Marks of the Emerging Church. Orleans, MA: Paraclete Press, 2006.

- Wheatley, Margaret J. Finding Our Way: Leadership for an Uncertain Time. 1st ed. San Francisco, CA: Berrett-Koehler Publishers, 2005.
I’ve read some of Meg (Margaret) Wheatly and Alan Hirsch. However, I’m not familiar with any of the other authors. If you have some knowledge of them, I would appreciate any insight.

I feel your pain my brother, I feel your pain. Undergrad and post grad? = 2 books max per class. Doctoral? = no fewer than 3 each…

Maybe I will reconsider going for mine

Trust me Brother, if I can do it, as much of an idiot as I can be, YOU most assuredly can do it! I have to tell you, I am getting so much out of this training I am so happy I am sucking it up and getting it done. It is so funny to me, the deeper my commitment to Christ, the better He prepares me to commit to Him.

Hi DAve, noticed the blog and dropped in. Just to let you know that my book The Forgotten Ways will not be released until Jan 07
Unless you are with Len Sweet - he’s got a special deal with Brazos. I take it that you are. Anyhow, let me know what you think. And no, I don’t know any of the others either.

Alan,
thanks for dropping by! Yeah, I’m studying with Len Sweet and the rumor is that we’re going to have an e-copy when we get to class at the end of August. I will let you know.
