Here is our list of 2014′s Englewood Honor Books, the 25 Best Books of the year for the life and flourishing of the Church.
Our criterion both for selecting books to review and for honoring the year’s best books is to choose books that are “for the life and flourishing of the Church” – i.e., books that energize us to be the local community of God’s people that God has called us to be and that nurture our mission of following in the way of God’s reconciliation of all things (in all its broadness!).
[ Book of the Year ] [ Slow and Local ] [ Theology ] [ Praxis ]
[ Fiction ] [ Non-Fiction ] [ Poetry/ Young Readers ]
Our Book of the Year:
[ Help Us Pick the Worst Covers of 2015 ]

Here is our list of the worst Christian book covers of 2014…
It’s that time of year again, a tradition almost as familiar as the Thanksgiving turkey or trimming the Christmas tree… It’s time to honor the worst Christian book covers of the year!!!
(Numbers 12-15 on this list are ebooks, the rest are print books. If we hadn’t limited our ebook choices to four, we could have chosen literally hundreds of bad ebook covers.)
Enjoy, and share these with your friends!
