I know most of you out there in the blogosphere marvel in constant wonder of my ability to entertain you via the internet while focusing on my studies and maintaining a healthy marriage. The answer is simple. I do a lot of reading. Also, I don’t focus on my studies. But seriously, you should read. A lot. Here are the next ten book son my reading list:

1. Velvet Elvis – Rob Bell
2. Freakonomics – Levitt and Dubner
3. Divine Conspiracy – Dallas Willard
4. The Leadership Engine – Noel Tichy
5. No Compromise: The Life Story of Keith Green – Green and Hazard
6. The Discoverers – Daniel Boorstin
7. Praise Habit – David Crowder
8. Mindfulness – Ellen Langer
9. The Practice of the Presence of God – Brother Lawrence
10. Spy – Ted Bell

As you may have noticed, I try to cover a wide range of topics and genres. For every ten book I read I try to include spiritual, leadership, history, biography, fiction, and some randomness. If you haven’t already, you should think about creating a reading list for yourself and becoming very intentional about what you’re reading. John Wooden says, “Ten years from now you will be the same person you are today except for the people you’ve met and the books you’ve read.”
