"The Journal of the Unknown Prophet." fabulous book - getting a lot out of it. Saw it promoted by T. B. on F.F. Told my wife we should get it. She said we have had it for years. (2005-2006) She didn't care for it. I'm not finished yet, but it may just be the most encouraging book I ever read.

Larry II

Unknown Prophet

"Listen" to parts of the book.

I am trying to get my hands on that one! I would love to read it.

I am reading the book of Matthew from the Bible.

Also I am reading Parachute Infantry-David Kenyon Webster. It is a real account from WWII. I love to read about WWII history. It was such an interesting era.

Currently I am almost finished with Eragon by Christopher Paolini. Good book I reckon.
