I’ve read a lot of books in the last couple of years. I thought that my reading list might be valuable to others, so I started writing reviews and collecting links for the benefit of others. The list got too long for a single page, so I’ve broken it out into several sub-topics.
For each book, I’ve included the Amazon blurb and cover image, as well as a link to the Amazon listing for the book.
These are the categories/topics:
General Christianity
Salvation and End Times
Deconstruction and Rethinking the Christian Faith
Evangelicalism and Christian Nationalism
Sexuality and Gender
Women, Patriarchy, and the Church
Racism and Oppression
