Eugene Peterson believes that the end does not justify the means. The Jesus Way is a treatise for pilgrims who follow Jesus. We are on the way, and the “ways and means” of following Jesus matter as much as the end product or destination.

I finished The Drama of Scripture by Craig Bartholomew and Michael Goheen. The book is an absolute gem and if you haven’t read it yet you need to purchase a copy immediately!
The basic point of the book is to provide an introductory look at the grand overarching narratival flow of the Bible. The […]
I just finished Pete Rollins book How (Not) To Speak Of God which will surely prove to be an important work for those engaged in the Emering/Emergent Church Conversation. Tony Jones has state he won’t speak to anyone about the issues if they haven’t read this book (paraphrase) and McLaren says he is a […]
During my prep for Sunday I re-read several chapters from JP Moreland’s Scaling the Secular City: A Defense of Christianity. I first came into contact with this book my sophomore year of college. While it is some 20 years old at this point, I still think it is the best single volume evidentiary […]
One of the books I re-read in the last few weeks is Lee Strobel’s The Case for a Creator. For those unfamiliar, this book follows Strobel’s best selling technique of interviews with experts on various issues related to the topic (ala The Case for Christ & The Case for Faith).

For the love of Pete what took me so long to finally finish this book? It’s a light book, simple enough concepts, but has taken me a lifetime to finish. In a Pit with a Lion on a Snowy Day is the second book by Mark Batterson, pastor of National Community Church in […]
Cory has already placed a review of this book but I thought I’d provide my two cents as well…
Needing a break from all the science books and philosophy of science books I’ve been reading I finished up The Big Idea by Dave & Jon Ferguson & Eric Bramlett from Community Christian in Chicago. Let me […]
I update the website at NextStep Resources & not only does that mean that I add new & upcoming books to our website, I get to keep up on on all the new books that come into the store. So I get to see all the new stuff. Well, Samson and the Pirate […]
This book came in about a week ago & a lady who works in NextStep store was having trouble figuring out how to categorize this book & where to put it. “I just don’t like the title,” she says. The title definitely makes you perk up. Sex God. God & Sex - do they […]
