He's a very gifted speaker, and has a passion for Jesus (but not necessarily religion!). He makes Spoken Word videos about faith that are pretty interesting. Here's one he made about religion (which is obviously a big topic with him): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1IAhDGYlpqYJainahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02204775145211828620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8642167378367548721.post-89263118608442783362014-11-08T13:05:59.668-08:002014-11-08T13:05:59.668-08:00This looks like such a great book!

I review children's books, being a former teacher and children's librarian on a separate blog. This book looks like something I ought to read for I struggle with a lot that I am and am not in and out of the setting of "religion." I struggle with the way "church" seems to be more often than not and the ways that I interact with it. The titles of the chapters are quite profound. You are right about the wisdom of this 23 year old! <br />Glad you are my neighbor at SDG. <br />Caring through Christ, ~ linda Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
