Essential C# 2.0 by Mark Michaelis

It has seemingly taken forever since my post that Amazon listed my book.  Finally, however, a physical copy of Essential C# 2.0 showed up on my door step this week.  Yahoo!!!!!  Now if you purchase the book it will actually be shipped to you.

Essential C# 2.0

This is my fourth book and by far the one I am most pleased with.  It comes both in regular (physical) book form and as an eBook(PDF).

Thanks to the many folks that were involved with its creation.  I really appreciative it.  It would not be nearly the book it is without you.

The Chronological Bible

In my quite times this year, I have been reading through the One Year Chronological Bible.  I have really enjoyed this approach to reading the Bible.  I have found the reading of the Old Testament fascinating.  Unlike times past, I haven't felt bogged down slothing through boring history or geneaology at all.  In fact, many times I find that I am reluctant to put it down because I am in the middle of an interesting story.  For those intersted in reading through the Bible, I highly recommend this approach.

This morning I decided to look for a timeline of the Kings of Israel and Judah.  The best one I found includes the prophets that accompanied the reign.  This is helpful in reading as I find myself frequently loosing tracking track of whether the king is over Israel or Judah and whether they are for or against the Lord.
