Book of Common Prayer

Good To Great In God’s Eyes, by Chip Ingram is an extremely good book with a tremendous amount of challenges and different perspectives on the bible and just life in general. When I first came across this title on the list of books that was given to us, I thought that this book was going to be geared more to leadership. I am not saying that the bible has nothing to do with leadership or that Ingram did not talk about leadership at all, but that was not the main topic of this novel. This novel…
