You know how when you complete something yet you have that nagging feeling it's not done? That how I felt about the recommendations for Pastor Jon's recent WE message - "WE Are Beautfifully Connected to BUILD."
If you didn't get to hear the message on the weekend, go here first. It's a great message - you have to hear it.
You can check out our resource page here. We want to give you some resources to help you process and digest all that you heard on the weekend. After all, faith only built by what ou heard on Sunday, but also what you live out on Monday!
However, after looking at my bookshelf, I came up with more books I wish I had added to the resource list.
I also organized it for levels of difficulty of reading and concept:
Basic - quick, easy reads, often devotional
Intermediate - longer, a little deeper, likely more theological
Advanced - deep language and concept, probably considered a "classic"
If you only have time for one:
Basic - The Purpose-Driven Life by Rick Warren
Intermediate - Chrisitan Basicsby John Stott
Advanced - A Serious Call to a Devout and Holy Life by William Law
