Spirituality for the Rest of Us

Our Sunday School class is using this in our class and are really enjoying the discussion that Larry Osborne stimulates. Larry was in the High School group at our church so it is a delight to use his book as we know his parents well. Great book. I recommend it for anyone on their spiritual journey.

Spirituality that Makes Sense

This book is a must read. You'll read through it and discover that Osborne is verbalizing many things you hadn't before because you'd been taught to believe otherwise. Osborne does a great job of stripping American culture away from Scripture and getting back to its original intend. Great read and very freeing.

Good book

This is the same book as "A Contrarian's Guide to Knowing God" by the same author. They added questions at the end of each chapter so you can use it for a group discussion. (They were formerly available online). It's not as good of paper as the first book, but the information makes up for it. I found this book to be a refreshing look at having a relationship with Christ if you're not wired to journal, read theology every day, and pray for hours. The book addresses the fact that most Christian books are written by bookworms, and therefore see everything from that perspective. I, being an artistic ADD type (some might call me "flaky":) who loves Jesus Christ was encouraged to know I wasn't alone. My faith is legitimate as those who are wired to be scholars. If you're a bookworm, I'd recommend the reading to see how the other half thinks.
