A BETTER WAY TO SPEND TIME
Thirteen months ago our associate pastor recommended a book called "Infidel" It's a biography written by a Muslim woman who escaped from the Islam religion. She still fears for her life. Unfortunatly she turned against all religion. I (Ken) found reading this book to be a great alternative to watching TV. In the past reading wasn't something I cared to do. Since then I have read 23 books and on my 24th. My reading has consisted of thealogical, political, biographical and some fiction. My favorite reading has been a searies of 9 books by Charles Swindoll, each pertaining to a specific personality in the scriptures. I am now on my 8th book of the series which is on Job. One of my recent books was titled " The Wounded Spirit' by Frank Peretti. He usually writes mystery nivels but this is a book pertaining to his own life. He was born with a deformaty and throughtout his younger life he faced much teasing and bullying. He relates how if he hadn't been a Christian he could have become one of those who took matters in his own hands much as those at Colombine. He points out the failure of the school systems to deal with the byllying and feels that parents arent in touch with their kids to know whats going on in their lives. Much more could be said but this is long enough so I'll bring it to a close.
