Have a Little Faith by Mitch Albom.  Author of Tuesdays With Morrie and For One More Day, Albom was raised Jewish & his previous writings have involved wisdom from a Jewish Rabbi he spent days with gaining knowledge before his death.  This new book jumps into an entirely different faith.  It tells of having hope in the midst of your lowest point.  It is the story of Pastor Henry Covington who was in prison for dealing drugs and turned his life around.  He now runs I Am My Brother's Keeper Ministries in downtown Detroit.  Proceeds from the book will go to help put a new roof on the church which currently has a gaping hole in it.  Have A Little Faith can be purchased at Amazon.com or at your local Borders or Barnes & Noble.

Going Rogue by Sarah Palin - Sarah Palin, The Replublican 2008 Vice-Presidential Candidate, wrote the book to reveal events in her life that brought her to the person she is today.  Going Rogue can be purchased for a discounted price of $14.50 from your local WalMart stores online for a limited time, or at Borders, Barnes & Noble and various other local St. Louis bookstores.
