Don’t Waste Your Life - John Piper

The best book ever written (except the Bible).

I once said that Blue Like Jazz was a stunningly, stunningly good book. Compared to this, it’s … well, it just can’t compare with ‘Don’t Waste Your Life’.

If you read this and it doesn’t change your life then you’re either not saved or dead.

It’s as simple as that!

John Piper’s writing style is a little heavy for me but he has lightened it up enough to make it readable and what he has to say is, in my opinion, essential reading for all Christians.

DON’T WASTE YOUR LIFE!

The Married Guys Guide to Great Sex - Clifford and Joyce Penner

…..and I thought you were a Christian! How dare you talk about sex!

Let’s face it, sex is so pervasive in our culture and is so misused and abused that many of us think it’s a taboo subject.

Personally, I don’t think it’s the best topic of discussion for the dinner table but I am convinced of this: God made sex for us to enjoy - within the bounds of marriage.

Unfortunately, our understanding of sex and how to enjoy it is perverted by modern culture.

This book cuts through the nonsense and takes us back to a place where we can enjoy sex in the way God created it to be enjoyed - fulfillingly.

This book is essential reading for all men (and women).
