PastorBookshelf Week in Review—09.14.07

Our goal at PastorBookshelf is to build a resource that pastors and those in the ministry (or training for it!) would find helpful–particularly in regard to books. In pursuit of this goal, we create or compile content in three different veins:

• Overviews—Links, in about ten categories, for specific books.
• Reviews—Written by members of our Review Program or links to reviews elsewhere.
• Excerpts—Brief passages to familiarize with the author’s style, the goal of the book, etc.

It’s our hope that these three tools can help to better equip our readers to make informed decisions in what to read or what to buy.
