Tagged!
My dear sister, Rose "tagged" me.
1. One book that changed your life: I can only echo Rose's response here.
The Bible(I know - that is "the" answer, but I cannot attribute "life-changing" to any other book. None of them have done anything of the sort.)
2. One book that you’ve read more than once: "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" several times as a boy.
3. One book you’d want on a desert island: Refer to Number 1. ;-)
4. One book that made you laugh: Refer to Number 2 (hehe)
5. One book that made you cry [or feel really sad]: "The Grapes of Wrath"
6. One book that you wish had been written: was written. Again refer to Number 1!
7. One book that you wish had never been written: This one causes me all kinds of internal turmoil. As much as I hate this I'll have to pass on this one for now. :-(
8. One book you’re currently reading: Yep, you guessed it! See Number 1 again! ;-)
9. One book you’ve been meaning to read: This tag is just too easy. Back to Number 1!
10. Now tag five people: Pastor Timothy, Nellie Bellie, Rev JP, Gordon and last but by no means least, Danny Kaye (Jeff).
For more information on my poor response here see this article.

Here is another question, Kc:
One book that helped you to understand the Bible better?
Matthew to be honest my understanding of the scripture was primarily influenced by my teachers over the years. The book I think has made the most profound impact on me is "Foxe's Book of Martyrs".
Hey, KC,
Thanks for doing that - but Bible Bible Bible?!
What do you think you are - a Christian or something?
;~)
I think you should've thought of something more creative for #6! hahaha
I'm game...give me a day or so, though.
Sis you can't imagine how tempted I was! ;-)
Thanks Jeff. I'll be looking forward to it. ;-)
Ok...the book meme looked like more fun than what I was actually doing, so I did the book meme first.
Thanks for thinking of me!
Thanks Jeff. Good job. ;-)
Kc is the church you attend happened to go by the name '---Bible Church'?
Matthew, It is an independant Baptist church.
I like #1, too!
KC,
I've posted my responses over at my place...
Blessings
BTW, this was my first tag! Yea!
BTW, have you ever read Calvin's Institutes... just out of curiosity, or do you despise them simply because you have heard things about them?
I beg anyone to find anything wrong with much of what he has written, except his rants against the RCC, which I believe are justified, but not abundantly necessary? Also, his section on prayer has to be one the best treatments on prayer I have ever read. His writings really are pastoral in nature.
Joe, thanks. We have much in common. ;-)
Pastor I appreciate you participating (Baptist comment and all hehe)
That's a fair question and I will prepare an article to answer your questions concerning Calvin's works. (No ill will I promise. Only my observations and conclusions.)
Referring to the question by Dyspraxic about the book that helped you understand the bible:
I would have to go with two:
Calvin's Institutes and the Westminster Confession of Faith.
