God's Promises for the American Patriot-Dr. Richard G. Lee and Jack Countryman

First off, I thought this was a leather book.  As in, full brown leather binding and all that jazz.  It is a leather book, just not the kind I expected.  So just keep that in mind if that persuades you either way.  Now, on to the book.

In Defense of Calvinism

I dislike the term Calvinist.  I don’t like that some people would be quicker to call themselves a Calvinist then a Christian.  But I do firmly believe in what Calvinism stands for and by that I would technically be a Calvinist.  Following is my reasoning of why I believe what I do.  I hope it is to your benefit.

Calvinism is wrapped up in five points called the T.U.L.I.P.  Total Depravity.  Unconditional Election.  Limited Atonement.  Irresistible Grace.  Perseverance of the Saints.

Chaos-Ted Dekker

This is so far my favorite of the series.  Chaos really keeps the reader plugged in from start to finish and doesn't let you go.  You'll definitely want to read the previous books before diving into this one though.

Renegade-Ted Dekker

One of the chosen has gone renegade.
Turning his back on all that he once believed, Billos does the forbidden and enters into a Book of History. He lands in a reality as foreign to him as water is to oil. A place called Paradise, Colorado. He has strange new powers given to him courtesy of a mysterious figure known as Marsuvees Black.

Desiring God-John Piper

Satisfaction…Happiness…Joy. According to John Piper, the pursuit of pleasure in God is not only permissible, it’s essential.

Desiring God is a paradigm-shattering work that dramatically alters common perspectives on relating to God.  Piper reveals that there really is no need to choose between duty and delight in the Christian life. In fact, for the follower of Jesus, delight is the duty as Christ is most magnified in His people when they are most satisfied in Him.

Invasion-Jo S. Lewis

Invasion was very different from the books I've typically read.  I've read a few science fiction and many fantasy books, but nothing that was quite like this.  The premise of the story is much akin to that of many comic books, however considering that the author is a DC comics writer, that seems to fit.

Dragons of the Valley-Donita K. Paul

The Dragons of the Valley has one distinct flaw.  It failed to bring me in within the first hundred pages.  Considering that there are many readers who implement the 50-page [if they aren't intrigued by a book after 50 pages, their through with the book] this is a very big problem.  While that was a huge problem for me there was also the ever-present Donita K. Paul character flair.

Desperate? Maybe. Insane? Completely.

Well, maybe completely isn't quite the word.  The results haven't come back yet.  Either way I need you, my faithful readers help with something.  Waterbrook Multnomah is giving away an E-Reader!  But it's not as simple as entering an email and a name.  This is for their blogging program, Blogging For Books, and is being given away to the review with the most votes for December.

The Vanishing Sculptor-Donita K. Paul

The Vanishing Sculptor acts the first book in a prequel series to the famed Dragonkeeper Chronicles.  However, it stands as a complete novel and series in itself.  Something that is in my mind considered a very good thing.

Infidel-Ted Dekker

To see my review of Chosen, the first book in the Lost Books Series, head over here.

Description:
After being stretched to their limits, the four heroic young Forest Guard recruits-Johnis, Silvie, Billos, and Darsal-are pulled into deeper danger on their mission to secure the seven lost Books of History.
