Peace Like A River by Leif Enger

I had no idea what this book was about when I picked it up to read.  After finishing it, I'm still not sure.  Is it about the unintended consequences of our actions?  Is it about faith and belief?  Is it just a story about a young asthmatic boy struggling for breath and courage to live?  320 pages.

Have a Little Faith by Mitch Albom

Mitch Albom was asked by his rabbi, Albert "Reb" Lewis, to give his eulogy. Mitch agreed, but in order to do him justice, decided to meet with Reb on a regular basis to learn more about his life on a more personal level. Their discussions lead Mitch along a faith journey that also is impacted by another clergyman, Henry Covington, a reformed drug dealer struggling to keep his church in Detroit afloat . Have a Little Faith quickly draws you into the lives of all three men and offers many insightful comments about what it means to live a life of faith. 272 p.
