Perhaps you've noticed, like I have, that I am reading a lot of books at one time. And maybe that's why I take a long time to finish them. So maybe I'll just focus on these before I jump on to these next ones. But, the problem is, when one looks so interesting, it's hard for me not to start into it.

Shawn thanks for sharing the list - I will check out a few of them... and a few I have checked out and am glad they are on your list.
Looks like a good trip to Florida - with Cauley Jr. (good guy), and of course Dr. Clouzet.
Have fun - hopefully we will see you next week for a minute or two.
Just reading your list, and knowing or have read many of them, I have to say you are a very interesting and amazing person. That's quite a variety on so many spectrums, and I would LOVE if my pastor had a reading list like that! Looking forward to hearing your posts and how the books are shaping you.
Thanks for your thoughts, Greenchickadee. I don't know if I'm "awesome," but I just try to stay well-rounded and well-read. I fail at both, I know.
Micheal: let me know about Tuesday as soon as you know. Would love to see you. Blessings in NYC this weekend, brother.
i'm amazed by how closely your reading list matches ours (and our conversational habits).
shocked, actually.
i know i already said i'd be keeping my eye on your blog, but now i'm hooked.
Thanks for following along, New England Pastor's wife! I'm feeling a lot of pressure now to keep my posts interesting!!!
I hope your ministry continues to flourish. Where are you located, anyway?
