I read a column recently where the writer composed a list of books to read. As I read his list I wondered about what books I'd put on my list. So, knowing that I'm going to leave something out and later think "Man, why didn't I include this book?", here's my list with the exception of the first book, in no particular order:
• The Bible – the book that ought to top every believers list
• Radical by David Platt – he will rock your world
• Crazy Love by Francis Chan
• Wild at Heart by John Eldredge – a must read for men, wives, and mothers of boys
• The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership by John Maxwell – any book by Maxwell if you want to develop your leadership ability
• Confessions of a Pastor by Craig Groeschel
• The Five People You Meet in Heaven by Mitch Albom – not intended to be theologically correct but it does make you think about how you live in the here and now
• Any book by Max Lucado (one of my favorite authors)
• The Warrior Leader by Bobby Welch
• The Power of a Whisper by Bill Hybels
• Fresh Wind, Fresh Fire by Jim Cymbala – a classic but worth the read
• Safely Home by Randy Alcorn
• When it comes to fiction I like to read James Patterson, Lisa Gardner, and right now I’m reading Michael Connelly
So what about you? What books make your list of must reads?
