These books have learned me so much and the writers are amazing people, every one of them. Please don’t ask me to promote anything on here; this place is reserved for the best of the best!

Now… Onto the books!

Don’t waste your life

“Dont waste your life” by John Piper is essentially a Christian book about making your life count. I only recently bought it, but it was such a life-changer that it definately deserves a place on this page.

John Piper is the pastor of Bethlehem baptist church, passionately teaching about the greatness of God. This book focuses on our life on earth and how not to waste it. (Because wasting it is far too easy nowadays!)

This book is for everyone that seeks to give meaning to their life, in whatever possible way. The paperback (yes, printed… on paper!) copy of this book is available at the Desiring God bookstore for only $7,50 (click on the book to visit)

Simply car-free

“Simply car-free” by Tammy Strobel. In short: I ditched my car, they ditched their car. Living without a car is freeing and saves the planet. An awesome book for those that are contemplating about life without a vehicle. (Or for those that deem it impossible!)

Simply car free sells for $9,95 at Tammy’s digital bookstore. (click on the book to go there)

Smalltopia

This book, also by Tammy Strobel ties in beautifully with “minimalist business”, mentioned above. Another great read about starting your own business from scratch, without (ever!) breaking the bank.

Tammy will show you how you don’t need a fancy office to start realising your dream.

“smalltopia” is also available at Tammy’s bookstore, for $27,- (click on the book to visit)

The minimalist within

“The minimalist within” is written by Faith Janes from “minimalist at home”. It’s primarily geared towards families, but really anyone can benefit from this great book!

Faith says she gets a lot of comments about how people admire the minimalist lifestyle, have decided to take steps in decluttering and organizing, but could never be “a real minimalist”. Well, guess what? Since there is no absolute definintion of a “minimalist”, you are one!

The best thing about this book? It’s free! (But don’t let that fool you into thinking it’s any less than the books mentioned above)
