What I am Reading at the Moment

If you're interested, here is what I am reading at the moment (I tend to read a bunch of things at a time):

1. The World is Flat 3.0, by Thomas Friedman: I picked this up in Newburyport amidst the wife's contractions. A fascinating read (the third edition) on the emergence of the new technologies and economic systems that have, for all intent and purposes, flattened the world. He makes macro/world-economics highly understandable and intriguing. If you want to know why the world works the way it does, at least a little bit, read this book.

2. The Reason for God, by Tim Keller: I blogged about this highly anticipated book a while back. Well, after having read through about half of it now, it is even better than I thought it would be. Though Keller had written before in journals and for websites, his writing style left much to be desired; it seemed rushed and, for lack of a better word, 'basic' at times. I guess he was holding out on us. In his new book he makes apologetics not only seem interesting but also feel inherently necessary and doable. Steve recommended it on Sunday. I heartily agree.

3. The Cross of Christ, by John Stott: Beautiful, heavy, amazing.
