In a day and age when we are so distracted by the digital world, reading can seem like work. However, it is a discipline that can help us immensely in our spiritual growth! Tony Reinke says it well when he writes, “What will we lose if we ignore books? And what will we lose if we fill our lives for the next twenty years with sitcoms, movies, ESPN, video games, and the Internet? What will we gain if we fill our lives for the next twenty years with disciplined reading?” Here is a list of books recommended by our pastor.
