My Utmost for His Highest
Very good daily devotion for people who are ready for more meaty spiritual subjects.

Houses of Healing - Some Yokefellow small group sessions use this book, training manual and video. Please note: this material is Unitarian in nature, like Alcoholics Anonymous, saying that any God (Jesus, Buddha, Allah) is OK to follow.

The Five Love Languages - a wonderful, Christian book on how to improve marriage and family relationships.

God Came Near - Max Lucado
Great book telling the story of Jesus.

Recovery Bible

The Upper Room daily devotion

There are very good Aftercare training materials available from St. James Episcopal Church, Potomac, Maryland.
