Look for Things

Resolution!

So, I usually don't believe in New Years resolutions and this year wasn't any different. I was at Denver Christmas Conference on New Years Eve worshiping the Lord through the New Year. This New Years Day was no different. I didn't resolve to change a thing. Since then, my good friend and discipler, Nicole Goeking, was telling me that her husband has resolved to read 52 books this year. That is one book a week! Holy Smokes! I have a huge list of books that I have been meaning to read, and I think maybe this is the time to make a resolution, well a late resolution. 

I resolve to read 15 books that point me to Jesus this year.  15 books that help me understand the grace of God, the sinfulness of man, and helps me fall more in love with my Savior. That's about one book every 3-4 weeks. I'm excited to see what the Lord shows me this year.
