Practicing His Presence by Brother Lawrence.

honestly, this book is way over my head spiritually. maybe i'll come back to it when i've grown more. it's very staunch on the underlining motive for the Christian life to be love for Jesus. i disagree. i think the fear of the Lord and promise of reward is no less an honorable means to live for God. i may make a thread on this.

anyway, i think i'm going to reread the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy again. i loved that series. do you have your towel?

Journal of the Plague Year by Daniel DeFoe.

Safe People: How to Find Relationships That Are Good for You and Avoid Those That Aren't
Henry Cloud and John Townsend

... it looked interesting. Don't you judge me.

In all seriousness it was recommended to me and i'm seeing whether I have the interest to read it all or if I bounce back to some delightful fiction because I hit a "oh for goodness sake" wall.

Or maybe A Streetcat Named Bob.

Natural Cures "They" Don't Want You To Know About - Kevin Trudeau

 

[Touma]

Hezbollah is the most powerful Islamist group operating in the Middle East today, and no other Western journalist has penetrated as deeply inside this secretive organization as Nicholas Blanford. Now Blanford has written the first comprehensive inside account of Hezbollah and its enduring struggle against Israel. Based on more than a decade and a half of reporting in Lebanon and conversations with Hezbollah’s determined fighters, Blanford reveals their ideology, motivations, and training, as well as new information on military tactics, weapons, and sophisticated electronic warfare and communications systems.

Using exclusive sources and his own dogged investigative skills, Blanford traces Hezbollah’s extraordinary evolution—from a zealous group of raw fighters motivated by Iran’s 1979 Islamic revolution into the most formidable non-state military organization in the world, whose charismatic leader vows to hasten Israel’s destruction. With dramatic eyewitness accounts, including Blanford’s own experiences of the battles, massacres, triumphs, and tragedies that have marked the conflict, the story follows the increasingly successful campaign of resistance that led to Israel’s historic withdrawal from Lebanon in 2000.

Warriors of God shows how Hezbollah won hearts and minds with exhaustive social welfare programs and sophisticated propaganda skills. Blanford traces the group’s secret military build-up since 2000 and reveals the stunning scope of its underground network of tunnels and bunkers, becoming the only journalist to independently discover and explore them. With the Middle East fearful of another, even more destructive war between Lebanon and Israel, Blanford tenaciously pursues Hezbollah’s post-2006 battle plans in the Lebanese mountains, earning him newspaper scoops as well as a terrifying interrogation and a night in jail.

Featuring sixteen years of probing interviews with Hezbollah’s leaders and fighters, Warriors of God is essential to understanding a key player in a region rocked by change and uncertainty.
