Any issues with the book list you are seeing? Or is there an author or series we don’t have? Let me know!
Born just 2 days before me I have loved his books since Circle. I have many ideas for books and have tried myself to write but I was never good at language. Thank God for Ted
Without a doubt – the top Christian writer ever. My personal favorites: Circle series, Burn, Skin, The Martyr’s series, The Forgotten Way – book and workbook and the 49th Mystic series. His Creative Way writing series is a must for any author. Would not let a teen read many of his books unless listed for youth specifically and then a mature youth – some are unsettling esoecially Burn. Read him again and again.
I love Ted Dekker’s books. I just loaned nine of his books to a friend. I especially love the devotional The Forgotten Way. I bought a copy of it to give to a friend.
I have loved Ted Dekker since my teen years. In my opinion he’s the best there is when it comes to Christian fiction with a strong underlying message (as any Christian message requires)
I highly recommend anything Ted Dekker writes. The Forgotten Way is the most helpful devotional I have read.
