The One Book meme

This got started by Ben Myers, the entry is here and I just felt like doing it.

So here we go...

1. One book that changed your life:
The Orthodox Church, Timothy Ware (now Met. Kallistos)

2. One book that you’ve read more than once:

Willow Tree and Olive, Irini Saviddes

3. One book you’d want on a desert island:

The philokalia? *grins*

4. One book that made you laugh:

The Magician's Daughter, Justyn Walker

5. One book that made you cry:

Willow Tree and Olive (as above), lots of others

6. One book that you wish had been written:
Why Kyrie should have just given up and joined Orthodoxy when she first thought about it!

7. One book that you wish had never been written:

Oh too many. Lemme think...Eldredge, the Purpose Driven nonsense, an awful lot of Western protestant theology...

8. One book you’re currently reading:
The Orthodox Way, Bishop Kallistos (Ware) (for theology), The Brothers Karamazov, Dostoevsky (for fiction)

9. One book you’ve been meaning to read:
The Count of Monte Christo, Dumas

10. Now tag five people: Um... anyone that reads this!

I completely agree with you about the Purpose Driven Life nonsense. When it first caught on here in the States, Papa's office manager attended a church that dived into it headfirst. It split the church apart and opened her up to demonic attack. It was bad.
