MARCH 2020
Have you ever started a book series? If it
is a good one, you want to read all of the
books in it--don’t you? Well, that is where
I have found myself with the Noah books.
So this month book 2--Noah Man of Resolve
and book 3 of the trilogy--Noah Man of God
are highlighted and on our library cart. You
might recall that Tim Chaffey, content manager
of the Ark Encounter is one of the authors
along with K. Marie Adams. Each book begins
where the other has left off.
Noah Man of Resolve begins in Noah’s 46th
year and covers the next 400 and shows how
the world’s wickedness increases and few
people follow the Creator. It ends with open
persecution of those who won’t bow down to
the idols. Our last book in the series cover
the last 100 years of Noah’s life and the build-
ing of the Ark. All three books are fast moving
stories with adventures, wonder and Biblical
history. Each features a non-fiction section
at end addressing the questions that might
arise from reading the books.
Our nonfiction selection is Leading with Soul
An Uncommon Journey of Spirit by Lee G.
Bolman and Terrence E. Deal. In story form-
a burned-out disillusioned leader searches
for passion and meaning in his life and work
environment. He encounters a teacher who
guides him to find his soul which can help
him find meaning and passion again. It is
an ecumenical approach with secular and
religious sources discussed. A way of leading
is uncovered where authenticity comes
through the heart and spirit. Because of
the story format it addresses these concepts
in an understandable and relatable way whether
you are in corporate leadership or not.
Hope a book captures your attention and your
time this month.
