Joy, joy! I just got back from Cokesbury book store on campus here, and they had a "Crazy 8's" sale. What this means is that I got to fill up a bag full of books from specified racks and paid only $8.88! Woo hoo! I got 14 books for 9 bucks! That is awesome. For you, the readers, enjoyment, and for posterity, here are the books that I bought:
1. The Next Christendom: the coming of global Christianity by Jenkins
2. After Race: racism after multiculturalism by Darder and Torres
3. Christology in Cultural Perspective: marking out the horizons by Greene
4. Hinduism: a very short introduction by Knott
5. Exploring Unseen Worlds: William James and the Philosophy of Mysticism by G. William Barnard
6. Divine Nobodies by Jim Palmer
7. Women in the Early Church by Elizabeth A. Clark
8. the Art of Biblical Poetry by Robert Alter
9. The Transformation of Anglicanism by Sachs
10. Church Reimagined by Doug Pagitt
11. Praying with the Church by Scot McKnight
12. Discourse on Method and Meditations on First Philosophy by Descartes
13. The Changing Shape of Church History by Justo Gonzales
14. The Call to Conversion by Jim Wallis
and to make things even sweeter today, I picked up the rest of my books for class this fall:

I am so proud to have made the top 10 of books bought for $9 - words cannot express the honor ;0)
Hahaha,
Dude, I had the Pagitt book on my bookshelf at the apartment. It really is a great read. Hope you enjoy your other readings ... must be nice to have a cokeburry that stocks all that kind of stuff.

Doug - If you come back and read this, know this: I would put you in the top 5 of books that I would buy for $9. That's how much I think of you!
/sarcasm
(I actually had meant to buy your book a ways back, when you were still blogging)
