Oh goodie! I was hoping I'd get "tagged" for this, and I did -- by Bob Carlton! So here are my answers:
.

2. One book that you’ve read more than once: A Churchless Faith, by Alan Jamieson
3. One book you’d want on a desert island: Celtic Daily Prayer, by the Northumbria Community
4. One book that made you laugh: On Bullshit, by Harry G. Frankfort
5. One book that
made you cry: The Trail of Tears, by Gloria Jahoda
6. One book you wish had been written: POMO NO-MO: Emerging Church Mistakes That Everyone Makes
7. One book you wish had never been written: The Late Great Planet Earth, by Hal Lindsey
8. One book you’re currently reading: Confronting the Idolatry of Family: A New Vision For The Household Of God, by Janet Fishburn
9. One book you’ve been meaning to read: Engaging the Powers: Discernment and Resistance in a World of Domination, by Walter Wink
10. One book you’d like to write: Both Are True: Embracing the Tensions of our Faith and Practice

I am also now tagging: Cory @ Bald ManBlogging, Fr. Matt @ lex aeternam, Andii @ Nouslife, Robin @ PENSIEVE, Dan @ Danno's Dangerous Mind , Anna @ deep soil, and Mike @ Emerging Pensees.
You mean we're actually supposed to remember the books we read?!? :) Thanks for the tag, Chris. I'll try to work somethin' up here in a bit. Nice list you've got.

My advice? There are better books and most definitely better theologians to read.

How does this tagging thing work?

Bill,
Bob tagged me after he had been tagged by someone. Now I've tagged some folks who will (hopefully) end up tagging others, who will tag others, etc., etc.

Hola Chris! Nice to hear from you, even in the form of a tag :-P I'll get on this soon... it will come as a welcome procrastination from what I'm supposed to be doing

Anna,
Procrastination? What's that?
Blessings,
Chris

I finally did it, lol. THIS was the thing I was procrastinating doing!! I just read over my list, and I'm not sure "what" it says about me. I had half a dozen thoughts for every category, and I guess I've read so many of these memes, I tried to steer clear of the choices I've seen repeated. I mean no Piper, Lewis or McLaren mentions?? They're three of my favorites! Hmmm...I've gotta go back over to PENSIEVE and add another thought.........
Thanks for the tag...paybacks, my friend, paybacks;)
