the reading list

Confession: I often start books that I do not finish. It’s not because I don’t like them, it’s not that they aren’t interesting…I’m not sure what it is really. But, I have recently made a list of all the books that I have that I haven’t read yet, or haven’t finished, along with the few that I purchased while in the States this summer. And in case you happened to be interested, I included the list for you below:

Crazy Love	Francis Chan

Don't Waste Your Life	John Piper
El Caso de Cristo	Lee Strobel
Ending Slavery : How We Free Today's Slaves	Kevin Bales
Escaping the Devil's Bedroom	Dawn Herzog Jewell
Forgotten God	Francis Chan
Good News About Injustice	Gary A. Haugen
Good to Great and the Social Sectors	Jim Collins
Heavenly Discipleship	Michael Wells
Humility: The Journey toward Holiness	Andrew Murray
J. Hudson Taylor : A Man in Christ	Roger Steer
Mero Cristianismo	C.S. Lewis
Since Nobody's perfect…How Good is good enough?	Andy Stanley

If you’ve read any of these and really enjoyed them, let me know! I haven’t decided in what order I’ll read them yet, and would utilize any input you might have for me. (You might notice that there are a few in Spanish, and though those might take upwards of a century to finish, I do intend on doing it!) Also, if you have any book recommendations for me, I hope to get some new books next time we’re home (books in English are hard to come by in Nicaragua!)
