I just finished a book on Dave Johnson, an Olympic Decathlete who became a Christian. It was really cool. I just started Smart Running...see a trend! I like Christian books too, i just like easy reading mostly until school is out.

Then you will be filled with the fullness of life and power that comes from God.

One Christian book I highly recommend is "Case for Christ"
by Lee Strobel. I have read it twice and it is amazing how he stacks up historical evidence to back up what the 4 gospels say. Definitely a book that will strenghten your faith as well as your knowledge when talking to unbelievers.

I agree. The part that blew me away was when Strobel talked about all the different "barriers" that the disciples had to break through in their own life to believe in Jesus. That part was amazing.

I finished Mere Christianity. It was great! Right now I'm re-reading The Chronicles of Narnia and Watership Down. I was going to read The Pilgrim's Progress, but I got bored before I even got past the four page poem at the beginning...
