I’ve been slowly stewing an idea in my brain for a few days now, and I finally decided to act on it. I noticed the creation of personalmba.com with interest, but didn’t think much about it until I saw that Jordon Cooper was inspired to create a comparable M. Div. list (thanks to Andrew Jones for pointing it out).
Anyway, I noticed that there was some criticism of the overall idea and of the specific book choices (some of the criticism was thoughtful, some was knee-jerk). I thought it would be great to create a wiki to let the broader community craft a list of books, articles, and projects that would really make a difference in someone’s ministry.
So I did. I present PersonalMDiv.com.
Have at it.
jordon seems a little peeved that you ganked resonate’s idea. i’m all about being the peacemaker so i thought you should know resonate had plans for the idea. here’s the link to the post: http://www.jordoncooper.com/2005/08/personalmdiv.html
Thanks for the heads up–I’ve posted a (hopefully) clarifying comment over on his blog.
Glen,
I’m glad you posted this list of books. I hope you add to it. I’m always hungry for book recommendations!
