Don't Waste Your Life
John Piper
In this book, John Piper challenges Christians to live a life that glorifies God, rather than one that is wasted on trivial diversions and earthly comforts. Piper argues that God created humans to live with a single, all-embracing passion to display His supreme excellence in all spheres of life. He emphasizes the importance of risking one's life for the sake of the Gospel and making the glory of God the singular passion of one's life. The book is a heartfelt call to live and die boasting in the cross of Christ and to avoid a life that counts for nothing[2][3][4].
The children
David Halberstam
The Children is a detailed narrative by David Halberstam that chronicles the 1959–1962 Nashville Student Movement. The book meticulously recreates the lives of eight young men and women who formed the core committee of the movement, including figures like James Lawson, James Bevel, Diane Nash, John Lewis, and others. It covers key events such as the Nashville sit-ins, the Freedom Riders, and the formation of SNCC, highlighting the courage and resilience of these young activists in the face of violent opposition and societal segregation. The book also explores how these individuals, despite coming from underprivileged backgrounds, went on to achieve significant careers and contribute to the broader civil rights movement[2][3][4].
