8 Days!!

8 days unitl the new Donald Miller book "Through Painted Deserts" comes out!
Ok, ok as some of you know I am a little obbessed with Miller. I think this summer while I was in Kenya I talked about him more than my own dad.
But I think that Mr. Miller does a great job of presenting the gospel in a way that kids my age can understand it.
If you are unfaimlar with Mr. Miller, he has written books like "Blue Like Jazz" and "Searching for God Knows What"
The cool thing about this guy is that he is just a normal guy. He is not a pastor, or a theoilgan, he is just like you and me. He is a full time writer and speak who devotes all of his time talking about God to anyone that will hear.
You should check out his website, www.bluelikejazz.com He has put the first chapter to his new book on there. You should give it a read and then pass it to a friend.
I tell you this, you have never heard the gospel in the way Miller writes about it.
So go to his website, or your local bookstore and preorder you copy of his newbook today! I am!
