Sometimes Political Activism Works!

I was able to help reverse a plan for American prisons that would have banned innumerable religious books from prison libraries. Only an extremely limited, and seemingly arbitrary list would have been allowed. A book like The Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren would have been barred from prisons all over the USA! I am so glad this has been reversed.

I won't talk about politics much in this blog, so don't worry. I just thought that this was pretty great.

Speaking of reading, here's the list of books I'm currently into (no, I usually do not read so many books at one time):

The Koran





Metamorpha












Reading Scripture with the Church Fathers











St. Augustine's Confessions













The Historical Jesus in Context











Devotional Classics
