Resolution #4: Read More Books

I've always been a reader.  Even as a kid I had bookshelves full of books.  I have to weed out my books every so often just to make room for more of them.  But in the last year or so I've read less than I used to.  Numerous books that I long to read sit on my shelf waiting for my time.

"Brethren, this ought not be," my old college president would often sternly say.

This year I plan to read more frequently outside of my normal Bible reading.  Perhaps a book a month?  I've got more than 12 waiting on me, but I think at least 12 is a good goal.  When learning stops, progress follows.  To adequately teach, I must be continually learning.  This is one of my goals for the coming year.

What about yourself?  Do you have a book to recommend?  As I am reading, I'll be sure to share what I pick up.  Currently I'm reading "the Year of Living Biblically."  You can check out my reading hobby on my Facebook page along with my reviews of various books.
