What I Read in 2023
I’ve been a reader for as long as I can remember. I read John Maxwell’s book 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership for the first time when I was 16. It’s become a habit to read multiple pages a day, which turns into multiple books a year.
What I Read in 2022
Every year I set a goal to read a certain number of books. I’ve gone all the way to 36 but have settled between 20 to 24. This year, instead of focusing on quantity, I focused on subjects that interested me and read a few pages every day. Somehow, I still got 20 books in.
For this post, I broke the books into categories.
What I Read in 2020
This year has been crazy to say the least. As much as I love to read leadership and ministry books, I read less this year because of all the stress. I needed an escape. Since I’m a huge Star Wars fan, and we’re in the golden age of Star Wars there are a lot of great books continuing the story.
What I read in 2018
My favorite book this year by far was The Road Back to You by Ian Morgan Cron and Suzanne Stabile. If you didn't hear about the Enneagram this year, you may be living under a rock, but I can say that it is so much more than a personality assessment.
What I Read in 2017
This year, was a much different list of books than I've read before. I've learned that reading all non-fiction all the time can get boring and tedious. So, I read more fiction than I've read since probably High School. It's a nice mini-vacation.
What I Read in 2016
This year I set out to read only 10 books. I guess I went a little overboard and read 18 instead. I became a parent in early 2015 and started leading a parent lifegroup in 2016, so I spent a lot more time reading parenting books than I ever have before.
