Books I've Read so Far this Year

One of the best part of this summer -- which I really would like to write more about at some point -- has been the bandwidth to spend time reading and learning.  Things got a bit out of control this last month (understatement??) and my reading time was cut down quite a bit, but nonetheless I was able to read a lot.  Here's what I've read so far this year.

  • Five People you Meet in Heaven by Mitch Albom
  • 7: An Experimental Mutiny Against Excess by Jen Hatmaker
  • When Helping Hurts by Steve Corbett and Brian Fikkert
  • Blue Like Jazz by Donald Miller
  • Love Does by Bob Goff

  • Creating Community: 5 Keys to Creating a Small Group Culture by Andy Stanley and Bill Willts
