Suggestions for Reading
When asked if I would present the program for the Denver Metro
Ministers' Lunch on May 11, 2004, I suggested an interesting
program might be to have all the participants talk a tad about
what they had recently read and were planning to read; one in each
category. During the Lunch a Legal Pad was circulated to get these
suggestions in writing and I offered to type and e-mail this material
to Dwayne Davenport, our President for distribution to our members
and at the encouragement of Ron Parker, our Regional Executive
Minister to all of clergy of the Region. In some cases, a participant
was able to remember only the title of the book and there may be
misspellings due to my misreading of someone's handwriting; but I
believe there are enough clues that each of us will be able to locate
the books of our choice. Here it is!
