Dave recently reviewed “Enough” in the Covenant Companion. I believe it was in the October issue. “Enough” is another book that we’re talking about a lot these days and is a great read.

You will find reviews on almost all of these books on Amazon.com. If you would like to read the best book on Christian Community Development, I would suggest Walking with the Poor.
