Mine is Joyce Meyer, too! I saw her live once. She is really good speaker and a good writer. I love her books. She has a good sence of humor, so it is very easy to stay focused.

Anne Lamott and Madeline L'Engle
Yes, I know they both have written fiction, but they also have written Christian non-fiction.
Anne Lamott wrote "Some Thoughts On Faith" and "Plan B: Further Reflections On Faith."
Madeline L'Engle's Christian books include "The Genesis Triology," "Walking On Water," and many others.
What did Joyce Meyer write? I've never read any of her books.

I'm an atheist, but I still have respect for two brilliant Christian authors. The average Christian puts up about as much or less thought into their beliefs as a UFO cult member (i.e. Heaven's Gate cult). These two, however, provide intelligent and respectable arguments for their beliefs.
First:
Preston Jones, who was the co-author of the book "Is Belief in God Good, Bad or Irrelevant?", which was released earlier this year. In the book, he debates Dr. Greg Graffin, a studied atheist.
Second:
Francis S. Collins, head of the Human Genome Project. He wrote a book, which I have not read, but still manages to gain my respect. In an article in Time, "God Vs. Science." (Nov. 13, 2006), he debates with one of my personal heroes, atheist Richard Dawkins. Oddly enough, I agree with Collins' views about as much as I agree with Dawkins. This seeming paradox exists because both of them are deep thinkers, and don't present weak arguments. As an atheist/agnostic, I seek the truth... I don't pretend I know the truth. These men both want the truth, not belief-- only arriving at different conclusions.

Fiction - JRR Tolkein (historical sidenote CS Lewis would not have converted to Christianity if not for Tolkein. Although Tolkein was Catholic and Lewis became Anglican. They were friends teaching at Oxford).
Non Fiction- Hans Kung

Bodie & Brock Thoene, impressive historic fiction. Makes one think of one is sturdy there with the characters. Frank Peretti ( unsure of the spelling ) and Dee Henderson are additionally very sturdy to examine.

C.S. Lewis - he has such a variety of writings - from The Chronicles of Narnia to the Great Divorce and others. Great author. Also really enjoy Chuck Swindoll.

Joyce Meyer is good. I like Steve Sampson. His work is so good and yet simple. It is really anointed.
