Books Roundup

As I do every year, here is my list of the top books that I read this past year. Reading a lot (around 65 books) gave me more books to choose from but these titles stood out:

This Momentary Marriage by John Piper
The Discipline of Spiritual Discernment by Tim Challies
Hunting Eichmann by Neal Bascomb
State of Fear by Michael Crichton
Tactics: A Game Plan for Discussing Your Christian Convictions by Greg Koukl
