I Read...

I love discovering good books to read, and usually I find one by someone's suggestion.  Reading is a good way to learn. Isn't it interesting that God chose the written word to reveal himself to us? The pages of scripture speak to us of His love, character and nature, his grace and his ultimate plan to bring us back into right relationship to him through Christ. Therefore, I read....
 I want to learn. I want to grow. I want to read.
If you have a favorite book let me know. I will add it to my reading list. On I read... I categorize books I have read into various themes.  Keep checking back, I am always updating.
