Finished Blue Like Jazz

When I read what Jon over at "Stuff Christians Like" wrote about Donald Miller I was pretty sure I'd have to read "Blue Like Jazz". It's a great book. I wish I could have read it years ago.

When I first started reading it, I compared it to Mere Christianity, because it seemed they both fit in the same niche. But, Miller's book is so much more than that. More than an exposition on what Christians believe, his book is about what he, personally, believes, how he arrived at those conclusions, and the bumps, bruises, and missteps along the way. Don Miller isn't someone trying to capitalize on credentials, or his christian pedigree to get people to listen to what he has to say. He's just genuine, telling us about the people and events in his life that God has used to reveal truth to him.

Shortly,I'll be adding three more of his books to my list. I'm looking forward to reading them.
