My mom uses an audio book reader due to her low vision. The online catalog is pretty good about listing which books contain the rougher stuff. Still trying to determine the line between what is "some strong language" and "strong language." It can be challenging to find good yet “clean” stories.

I loved all the Foundation books, and have read some of them more than once. My only complaint about Asimov is his in-your-face atheism. And I'll also second your Sherlock recommendation. Very fun!

You gave me some good suggestions to check out. Recently I have been reading or re-reading some classic Sci Fi. Isaac Asimov: Robot novels, Foundation trilogy and the second trilogy written about 30 years later. In the second trilogy he ties the original trilogy in with the robot novels. He is the father of modern science fiction and coined the word "robotics." His earlier works, written in the 1950's, are remarkably insightful considering the state of technology at that time. Also the original Sherlock Holmes stories are great! I was able to get most of these as ebooks from the library. Great post. You gave me some good suggestions to check out.

God certainly works miracles in the US and Canada, but we have a hard time believing. Thanks for your comment, Reed.

I am not sure living in Canada or the US makes any type of difference. The longer I am a Christian I see fewer coincidences and far more miracles.

I think your friend's son is experiencing this pain and declaring himself an atheist as a part of maturing in Christ. He's waiting for the cock to crow that third time. John PS: my eyes are getting a bit better. Thanks for your prayers Hi Leslie,

You’re right on target with this post!

I think your friend’s son is experiencing this pain and declaring himself an atheist as a part of maturing in Christ.

He’s waiting for the cock to crow that third time.
