I love it when one book ties in with another one that I‘ve read recently! I just finished Value(s) by Mark Carney which also talked about the financial crisis of 2008 and, more specifically, ethical implications in the financial system.

I found this line interesting. Jesus was the source of inspiration for Christianity. St. Paul founded the Christian religion. As most of you know, I‘m a former Catholic current Muslim revert, and this line made me think about Christianity and who Christians truly follow. Do Christians really worship Jesus or Jesus according to St. Paul? It makes you stop and think. #europe #normandavies #christianity #stpaul #jesus #religion #history #theology

Random book from our personal library.

Explains the core of Christianity!

Really fun #bookhaul from the Renaissance Festival! Enfys J. Book is actually a visiting author but sadly I won‘t be able to make it the weekend they are coming.

It is a great book for many reasons, raw perspectives throughout, but is a great way to start to understand atheism. St Augustine‘s Confessions lays bare the complete inadequacy of religion to answer the great questions of life – which are really no different now than they were when he was grappling with them.

Kingdom, Grace, Judgment, by Robert Farrar Capon (2002)
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Premise: An omnibus edition of the author‘s engaging reflections on the parables of Jesus.

Review: In hindsight I wish I‘d reviewed the three volumes that went into this omnibus edition separately, as each book has its own personality. ⬇️
