Great Christian books for college age students?

March 22010

I really want to read Fearless, but there’s about three holds on it. So I need a book to fill my time while I wait for it.
It doesn’t exactly have to be Christian book, that’s just what I prefer. And it doesn’t have to specifically for college students. Non-fiction, fictions.
Anything! Haha I just need a really good book.

The Time Traveler’s Wife
Desperate Pastors’ Wives (1st book in Lulu Cafe Series-Christian book)
Twilight Series

where do i go for free christian books to order?

February 282010

i’m looking for free christian books were can i go.

Like all other books, you’ll have to pay for them or borrow them. One other possibility is that the author, himself/herself, puts them online and allows them to be read for free.

There are some Christian books in the public domain (no longer under copyright) which you can read online. For instance:
-The Confessions of St. Augustine – http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/3296
-Martin Luther’s 95 Theses – http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/274
-George MacDonald (many of them; he was a prolific writer and a pastor, he greatly influenced C.S.Lewis and also J.R.R. Tolkien) – some online include: Unspoken Sermons – http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/9057 and At the Back of the North Wind – http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/225 and Lilith – http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/1640 and Miracles of Our Lord – http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/9103 and Phantastes – http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/325 and The Vicar’s Daughter – http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/9471 (and many others)

I hope this helps a bit.

Are there any Christian-based books about puberty and talking to your children?

February 262010

My son is starting to go through puberty. I have looked at all types of books to discuss what is going on with the changes in his body, but none of the books are based off of Christian principles. Most of the books say exploring with masturbation is quite alright and you should explore your body. They talk about homosexual feelings and sex, but no where in any of the books I checked out, did it say refrain from having sex and abstinance is the way to go. I want my son to have these old morals that are so long gone in the world. Being a single mom, I have to try and find a way to have the talk with my son and relate the information that I don’t know about when it comes to the male body.

I haven’t looked into this a great deal yet b/c my children are younger (3 & 4) I do have several books by Dr. James Dosbson & I just love them! & he has a great reputation! He has a book called "Raising Teenagers Right" I haven’t read it, but knowing it’s Dr James Dobson-I would highly recomend it. I also found an article by him regarding puberty:

You could also do a search for christian puberty books or talk to your youth minister or pastor.
You would also like "bringing up Boys" by Dr James Dobson. Not as much about puberty but so much more! Helps you understand how boys think!
best of luck.
