Revolution in World Missions by K.P. Yohannan

Found this book for free at our church's bookstore (North Coast Church). I was a bit disappointed overall, but you get what you pay for. It discusses the need mission work on the Asian continent, specifically the funding of native missionaries. I guess I didn't like the guilt approach the author took with the reader. Looking past the fact that he made me feel bad, I did see his points for funding native missionaries over the cost incurred to send foreign "White" missionaries that are honestly less effective. I will save you the read and sum it up as follows: Spreading the word of God is important, especially in countries where The Word is less accessible, so if you are in a position to financially support foreign ministries please do so.

Arguing with Idiots by Glenn Beck



This book addresses some of the common hot topics (ie. immigration) and provides good facts (along with their sources) and puts the argument in laymen terms. Good book for the everyday person, but those who are looking for a sophisticated read won't find it hear. (Side note: Glenn Beck rock's!)
