A.C.M.E. stands for the Association of Churches for Missions and Evangelism. ACME (I’m going to stop using the periods now because it takes more effort than this parenthetical explanation I am writing to inform you of my cessation of such keyboard monotony) at this point is the only official group or entity with which we at King’s Fellowship are associated. The reason for this is simple: we wanted...  Read More

TacticsBy: Greg Koukl1. Would you Recommend this Book?Absolutely and I have often, this is a great follow up for introductory apologetic reading.2. What is the Main Point?This apologetic book is not about the arguments themselves, it is about how to use the reasoning of the arguments in real world conversations. Because I am more drawn to ideas, I put off reading this book as less interesting than...  Read More

Mere ChristianityBy: C.S. Lewis 1. Would you Recommend this Book?Of course. This is perhaps the first apologetic type book that I ever read and I try to go back and read it again every few years.

The Anxious Generation By. Jonathan Haidt 1. Would you Recommend this Book? If I was the Czar of America, I would force everyone to read this, AT LEAST all those whom God has entrusted with the title and task of Parent. Honestly, as much effort as one has to go through to adopt a child, is it too much to ask every Jack and Jill that walks into a hospital to welcome a new child to read this book before they can leave???  Read More

Crime and PunishmentBy: Fyodor Dostoevsky 1. Would you Recommend this Book?Constantly, this book had a significant impact on me and put me on reading fiction again largely because of how this book impacted me. This is the first example that I give of how fiction/narrative, like all good art, is able to say things that non-fiction is able to say even when directly attempting to.2. What is the Main ...  Read More

The Case Against the Sexual RevolutionBy Louise Perry 1. Would you Recommend this Book? Yes! With 1 caveat: Not long after writing this book, Perry converts to Christianity, but she writes as a non-Christian and that can show itself from time to time. She expresses views that may make you uncomfortable, and though normally simply quoting some cultural mantra, occasionally uses very vulgar vernacul...  Read More
