I have. =) Since I had read Children of Men a few years ago, I sort of skimmed it. I also finished Atonement. Next on my list is The Life of Pi. I'm not reading them in the order of the list, but I can't see that makes much difference.
Anyone else?
You guys/gals have great responses!
I do believe there is a hunger that exits within us and it has taken me a long time to figure out what the hunger really is and how to go about filling it. For me it is simply Jesus. He remains present in everyth…
Yes I also believe that this hunger exists. I believe all to often we as humans stuggle with how we satisfy this need with things that are not of God and are worldly. I think it is easier for us in our human form to fall aside and want to find our c…
In the end, I think the novel gives us a chance to ponder the wonders in our lives. Whether it is the God designed circumstances in our daily lives that put us in the right place, with the right skills, like David, in David and Goliath, or simply lo…
I agree also. I think the hunger we have is there to "validate" our belief in God and the unseen. Sometimes we see something or hear about something that could be true but dismiss it as a hoax or mind game. We want to believe in the unknown but we a…
I totally agree. The hunger is there-I think it is just part of the way we are wired as humans. As far as satisfying it...I dunno...I guess I just really try to connect with God as much as possible. He is fairly good at blowing my mind! lol
One oth…
Absolutely-we all want and need something or someone to be bigger and better and stronger than we are (even if we don't admit it). We love to think that something/someone can overcome the limitations that we live under (time, gravity, space, etc). T…
I do believe this hunger exists in all of us. It is if we are open and willing to embrace it and see it for what it is. I know that for myself, I certainly feel it is a god-sized hole in the heart, that only he can fill.
Thanks for jumping in and s…
I'm not bashful. I'll jump in first. Hope Mark doesn't mind...
"We mortals have such a great hunger for supernatural things."
In church settings I've often heard this hunger described as a God-sized hole in the heart, that only He can fill. (This…
Looks like fun. I'll play! =)
1. What the funniest book you've ever read?
Eats, Shoots and Leaves by Lynne Truss
2. What's the scariest book you've ever read?
I'm not very much into scary books, but I did read THE STAND and it was freaky.
3. What…
How you liking 1421, Wendy? Wild, isn't it? Makes you want to go back to your 6th grade history teacher and say, "Lies! all lies!" One of my favorite things about the book is the spin it puts on genealogy and culture influence.

Dude, I could have loaned you The Ward copy. You know we're sooo far ahead. ;)
Part of why I'm excited about this book discussion is that I know little or nothing about these books. I saw the Road to Perdition film with Tom Hanks several years ago, but remember almost nothing about it, save for the ending.
I'm interested in s…
I've seen Atonement and found it interesting, but I haven't read the book. It will be interesting to match the two up.
