Happy New Year, friends! I hope you’ve had a great (albeit short) start to 2016!
A new year brings so many possibilities, doesn’t it? It’s a time most of us reflect on what we’ve done, what we’d like to do. Many of us aim to do more of this, less of that…
I have always loved to read. Whether for pleasure or professional development, reading has been one of my favorite hobbies since I was a teenager. In 2015, I read more than I have in recent years. Not because I had more time (I didn’t) but because I made it more of a priority. Every day.
One of my goals for 2016 is to continue to feed my soul through books.
I have chosen 16 books to read in 2016:
For The Love by Jen Hatmaker (I started this book in 2015 – looking forward to finishing)
Move: Nine Conversations to Build Your Kids Ministry by Brannon Marshall
Leading & Loving It: Encouragement for Pastors’ Wives and Women in Leadership by Lori Wilhite and Brandi Wilson
