Finished reading: Steve Martin Writes the Written Word by Steve Martin 📚

Steve Martin is a national treasure. I hope to – one day – shake his hand.

Finished reading: Opus by Gareth Gore 📚

The spiritual abuse chronicled in this book is just evil; including of course the alleged human trafficking.

Placing power & money over people is always wrong. Hopefully the church will be given the grace to overcome & correct these abuses.

Finished reading: The American Way of Death Revisited by Jessica Mitford 📚

A good read about grave matters.

Finished reading: Neoliberalism’s Demons by Adam Kotsko 📚

Finished reading: Careless People by Sarah Wynn-Williams 📚

Finished reading: Between Heaven and Mirth by James Martin 📚

Finished reading: The Speed of Trust by Stephen M.R. Covey 📚
