Oh, no!! I've been Tagged!!

Russell Smith over at The Eagle and Child tagged me with a "meme". I have to admit that I have no idea what that word means.... Oh, wait--here's what it means on Wikipedia. Anyway, here are my responses to this meme about books that have had an impact on me:

1. One book that changed your life: How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie

2. One book that you’ve read more than once: How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie (I see a pattern developing....)

3. One book you’d want on a desert island: I guess How to Win Friends and Influence People wouldn't do me much good. And I suppose the Bible doesn't count. And while I like Russell's answer a lot better, I'll say The Lord of the Rings (Yes, I know that's technically three books). It might not help me survive, but at least I'd be entertained.

4. One book that made you laugh: All of the Garfield comic collections when I was a kid.

5. One book that made you cry: Finding God in a Galaxy Far, Far Away: A Spiritual Exploration of the Star Wars Saga by Timothy Paul Jones (No, I didn't cry because it was about Star Wars; I cried because he had a touching story about his daughter!)

6. One book you wish had been written: A Guide to Understanding Everything About God in 30 Days or Less

7. One book you wish had never been written: Experiential Storytelling by Mark Miller (you can read my brief review of his book here on Amazon)

8. One book you’re currently reading: More Ready Than You Realize: Evangelism as Dance in the Postmodern Matrix by Brian McLaren

9. One book you’ve been meaning to read: The Barbarian Way by Erwin McManus

10. Tag 5 others: Well, since I'm still pretty new to blogging, I'm not sure I've got five people I know well enough to tag. So, here are four:
There you go! A brief view into the mind of Markus "StretchyChurch" Watson. Ooooh... so exciting... ;-)
