Being spoon feed by Tozer of these subjects doesn’t let you stay dependent on letting him feed you all the way rather makes you want to grab the spoon and feast on the spiritual meal yourself. He is gladly serving solid scriptural food but he carefully “mashes” it up for you to easily digest it, without losing its vital “nutrients” essential for the Christian. While the subject of attributes is something hard for us to grasp, Tozer puts forth his fatherly pastoral care in painstakingly letting you comprehend it not just by mind but by your heart. It’s a surprise for me to find how joy on these subjects from the early chapters of this book. I think Tozer, when delivering these series of sermon (for which this book came), is enthusiastically ecstatic over the pulpit. Leaping out of the beginning pages are his joy over these attributes. When books about doctrine comes to our minds we dismiss it as an avalanche of cold theological jargons ready to make rampage which those made of steel theologians on ivory towers will appreciate. I’ll post a book review on Pipers book by next week, but for now, let’s put “The Attributes of God” into the fray. Tozer and the other is the much anticipated book by John Piper simply titled “Think”. I got two of them last week at PCBS (Philippine Christian Bookstore). It’s such a blessing to be able to read great books.

We must largely stop burning fossil fuels within a decade if we are to save the coral reefs and the Arctic. These escalating consequences can still be avoided, but time is running out. At five, the planet is warmer than for 55 million years, while at six degrees a mass extinction of unparalleled proportions sweeps the planet, even raising the threat of the end of all life on Earth. At four, large areas of the globe are too hot for human habitation, erasing entire nations and turning billions into climate refugees. At three, the world begins to run out of food, threatening millions with starvation. At two degrees the Arctic ice cap melts away, and coral reefs disappear from the tropics.

Her father is not a soft man, he’s ruthless and hard, except when it comes to loving his wife-that is his one exception, but Annika is very aware of the world she comes from. What makes Annika such a unique character is that she’s grown up in a mafia world. She is the total opposite of Creighton is just about every way except she’s completely drawn to him like a moth to a flame and even when Creigh gets up and walks away repeatedly from her, he still can’t stop thinking about her. Creighton was so much more than I was expecting and I love those kind of surprises.Īnnika Volkov is bright and shiny and loves to fill the quiet with talking. His passion for caring may have only extended to those in his very small circle and he may have seen those certain traits about himself as flaws, but what I love about finding the person who completes you is they don’t see your flaws, they recognize their other half. Take my breath away – stupendous reading!! Every single time Rina writes a book I’m blown away!! Her crafted writing and flushed out characters continually slay me.įrom the quiet and aloof Creighton King we were previously introduced to, I fell in love with the multitude of brilliance and depth that fascinated me not only in his singular focus of topics or subjects, but also in his awareness of everything or everyone around him.

It wasn’t until the third episode that I noticed it was based on a book series, so like a good bookaholic I raced out and bought the first book to start reading immediately! Not many network TV shows catch my eye, I’m typically an HBO girl when it comes to ‘my shows’ but something about Wayward Pines on Fox caught my eye and after the first episode I was hooked.

A variety of evidence, including statistical analysis of the writing structure, has been put forward to suggest that Lovecraft was not the author. This was published in Amazing Stories (December 1930 and January 1931) under the name Paul H. Subsequent critics consider them part of the Cthulhu Mythos, but often split this into the original "Lovecraft Mythos" and the later and lesser "Derleth Mythos". While put forward as posthumous collaborations while Derleth was alive, the status of these works as collaborations with Lovecraft was swiftly disputed after his death.
