I am reading
  1. The Catholic Apologetic Bible ( Matthew) by Robert Sungenis
  2. How Can I get to Heaven, by Robert Sungenis
  3. Radio Replies, Volume 111
  4. The Navarre Bible, ( Complete New Testament)
  5. This Rock Magazine
  6. Go in Peace , by John Paul 11
  7. Shadow Fires, by Dean Koontz
 
I cannot have that much going at one time. I am currently reading
  1. Theology for Beginners
  2. The Spirit of Catholicism by Karl Adam (which I cannot put down, EVERYONE HERE needs to get a copy of this book and read it, the text is online on the EWTN site, do a web search for it)
  3. Ecclesiastical History by Eusebius (I actually read portions of this, I doubt I will sit and read the whole thing from cover to cover)
 
Chick Tracts! Nothing but Chick Tracts 24/7!!!

Seriously, I read at least one Catholic Answer tract a day, sometimes fup to five.
I review my highlights and notes from Catholicism and Fundamentalism daily.
I am deep into Chapter 6 of the Gospel of John (RSV-CE)
I read a section from Sirach and a section from Proverbs every morning. I have to admit, the Wisdom of Ben Sirach has to be one of my favorite books of the bible.
I am reading “The Servant” by James Hunter
I am also currently writing a book as well, as of yet untitled.
I subscribe to This Rock and The Catholic Answer.
 
The Holy Bible by God:bowdown:
The Five People You Meet in Heaven by Mitch Albom (just finished)
Swear to God by Scott Hahn
Hostage to the Devil by Malachi Martin:eek:

Quite a mix, don’t you think.
 
I’m reading…
  1. the NIV bible, know it’s not catholic but the only one I have right now
  2. The Inferno by Dante
  3. Memnoch the Devil by Anne Rice

I don’t know what you think of that book, but I found it to surprisingly good. I didn’t expect it to be, but it was very readable, thoroughly orthodox and remarkably detailed given it’s title.

Who knew… 👍
 
I’m reading these books for the first time:

The New Totalitarians - Roland Huntford
The Nurture Assumption - Judith Rich Harris

And these, for the second, third, or fourth time:

Dear Parents: A Gift of Love for Families - Catherine de Hueck Doherty
We and Our Children - Mary Reed Newland
The Shaping of a Christian Family - Elisabeth Elliot

I guess that makes me an avid rereader. 🙂
