What I'm Reading
Someone asked me what I'm reading, so here goes:
- Robert Kennedy and His Times by Arthur Schlesinger
- Is the Reformation Over by Mark Noll
- Alexander Hamilton by Ron Chernow. This guy is a great writer. Very engaging and thorough treatment.
- the book of James repeatedly in Today's New International Version
- Listening to the Beliefs of the Emerging Church - 5 Perspectives (great read and I was greatly heartened at the number of statements expressing a commitment to biblical orthodoxy)
I just finished
- iCon - Steve Jobs - The Greatest Second Act in the History of Business
- The Great Deluge by Douglas Brinkley on the 1st week after Katrina

brad, funny you mention the jobs - gates thing - I've been listening to it! I like the TNIV quite a bit. The Study Bible is also very, very helpful. I'm finding that lately I'm more and more drawn to dynamic equivalent translations such as the NIV and TNIV and am reading NASB, ESV, etc less. However, when I'm studying a text, I'll still pull out NASB and ESV. Both are also fine translations. But I greatly prefer NIV/TNIV in the OT.
Joe here...
Nice list. I passed your AH info to a friend who loves this stuff.
