Brennan's Book List

From time to time, I get requests for my recommended books on a particular subject. In an effort to answer such requests more efficiently, I have decided to compile all of my book recommendations in one place. In the future, I can simply link this blog post in my response. I will continue to add to it in years to come so it remains current. Please understand three things here. First, these are not all the books I have read on a subject, but I have read each book listed in its entirety. These are the books I found above average and specifically helpful. Second, in recommending a particular book I am not recommending everything in the book. Do not swallow it whole cloth. Third, in recommending a particular book I am not recommending everything by that author. I am recommending that specific book.

 

Current number of recommendations (updated 1/8/2024) – 423

Happy reading.

    1. Some of the books in the teaching category would be helpful here. I'm also to being done with Jim Krohn's book Youth Work. It is excellent. I'm sure I'll add it to the list when I finish. You can find it here:

  3. This is a great blessing. It is becoming harder and harder to find good books.

  4. after just a few minutes i stumbled upon on https://youtu.be/9GPWtFGz08M a video by the author of Why Johnny Can’t Preach entitles the same.

    he admits he didn't word by word, instead I suggest you use to whet your appetite rather than as a Readers Digest.
