So I gave into Gid’s plug and started reading Blue Like Jazz by Donald Miller. Sam bought the book off Amazon or eBay or something like that, so I figured… “what’s there to lose?” and picked it up.
It’s been a long time since I’ve read a book, especially one not required by a class I’m taking, much less one about Christianity. I must say though, this book is pretty good. A lot of things Miller talks about are very real… it’s like I could have written some of those pages myself from personal experience (well, if I were a writer =).
I love some of the analogies he makes too… like how his belief in Jesus is like penguin sex… you’ll have to read the book to figure that one out though. ;)
Anyways, I’m going to plug this book too. When I’m finished, you guys should give it a shot.
