Reading for Relationship
I owe much of my walk with Jesus to books. When read prayerfully, all books can teach us about God, ourselves, and our relationship to him. Here I critique the books that I have read, and highlight how they have been helpful to me. I hope and pray that these reviews may point you to books that will kindle your understanding of God and fuel your affection for him.

What the Number Means
Determining how "good" a book is by attaching a number to it will always be somewhat artificial. Nevertheless, I attempt to gauge with my rating the degree to which the book has helped me in my walk with Jesus and therefore speculate how helpful the book will be to the reader in theirs. Importantly, this means that a high-scoring book may be one that I wholeheartedly disagree with. However, as my conviction is that a significant way that we grow in our faith is through challenging our beliefs in order to refine them, I think this is good.
