I have seen a couple of blogs sharing book favorites with the public. I liked that idea and since I did not see a copyright I think I will do the same thing.
By the way I want to take out the bible factor from the discussion. It is obviously the most important book and an obvious answer for most of the questions.
Seven books that changed my life (in no particular order):
1.Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis-Classic for growing as a Christian
2.Moneyball by Micheal Lewis-All baseball fans should read it
3.The Firm by John Grisham (I read it in 9th grade and it caused me to take more of an interest in out of school reading. It also made me think I wanted to be a lawyer, which proved to be the last thing I wanted to be. This lead me towards the low-paying helping profession I am in training for now.)
4.Mere Discipleship by Lee Camp-All American Christians should read this, or as Camp rightly says it Christians who live in America
5.2nd Incarnation by Randy Harris and Rubel Shelly-Every church leader should read it
6.Celebration of Discipline by Richard Foster-Great for a fresh perspective on personal Christianity
7.The Question of God-Dr. Armand M. Nicholi, Jr.-Insightful book about the ideas of Sigmund Freud and C.S. Lewis
A book I have read more than once:
To Kill a Mockingbird-I always remember that I like it but I forget the storyline
A book I would take with me if I were stuck on a desert island:
Not sure...definatly something with pictures of things other than a desert island.
A book that made me laugh:
Seinfeld and Philosophy-Must I give a description?
A book that I wish I had written:
DSM IV-TR-This would mean I was really smart
A book that I wish had never been written:
The DaVinci Code by Dan Brown-Bible classes could have talked about the bible for a year
A book I have been "dying" to read:
Come to the Table by John Mark Hicks
Waiting for Teddy Williams-Fiction will be a nice change of pace
I am currently reading:
Restoring my Soul by Dr. Bill Flatt
Theories of Personality by Duane and Sydney Ellen Schultz
Learning the Art of Helping: Building Blocks and Techniques by Mark E. Young
The Human Odyssey: Life Span Development by Paul S. Kaplan
Becoming a Family Therapist by Kramer (no not that Kramer)
I would love any feedback...have a good one.

Hmm, sounds like you're a grad school student.
The currently reading section must have given me away.
