I'm reading [i]Song of Bernadette[/i] by Franz Werfel. Its an amesome book. I like it because it looks at faith and religious experience from a more realistic perspective, in my opinion.

Thanks, I'm not too worried about Theory. Policy will depend on the question, which can be anything related to crime and criminal justice policies. As long as I can pull 30-40 cites from memory for those two sections (four questions) and form a cogent answer I'm fine. Methods is going to kill me if anything; one question to design a qualitative research design in an hour and a half, one question to design a quantitative research study in an hour and a half, and one question to do and explain by step a random statistical process they choose and give partial data for, followed by explaining what the results mean in detail in relation to what is hypothetically being studied. :)

Now I'm reading about St. Francis of Assisi. I bought it in Assisi. I have a couple of books I want to buy before I go on my retreat.

I'm currently trying to finish reading a book my Catholic therapist gave me called [i]Feeling Good: The New Mood Therapy[/i] by Dr. David Burns. It's 398 pages long and a little hard to follow, especially since the book was written back in the 1980s and it has small type. I can't read more than a chapter at a time without having to take a break. I hope I'm able to get through it all by Tuesday. I was given a month to read it and just remembered this week that I forgot! :crazy:
