I am not often asked about what I am reading? I suppose because the presumption is that all I read is the Bible. I let the proverbial cat out of the bag with my prior list of Top 10 Baseball books that I do read something other than the Bible.
Truth is I find inspiration in reading. Even the baseball books I read inspire me in numerous ways. But I also read a lot of theology books. I like to stay current with what is new and what is old. At even given moment, I am most likely reading a dozen books. I have self described - book reading ADD. I just can't sit still with one book at a time! So I read from different books as I am motivated to read. After all, I am willing to admit some of the books I read just put me right to sleep!
So if you want to keep current with me, here is my current list of books in no particular order I am choosing to read from time to time:
Practical Divinity: Theology in the Wesleyan Tradition by Thomas A Langford
Responsible Grace: John Wesley's Practical Theology by Randy Maddox
The New Creation: John Wesley's Theology Today by Theodore Runyon
God is Great, God is Good by Craig and Meister
In the Beginning, God by Marva J Dawn
Deep Church by Jim Belcher
Holy Curiousity By Winn Collier
The Historical Jesus: Five Views edited by Beilby and Eddy
Loving Our Neighbor by Beth Lindsay Templeton
A Renegade's Guide to God by David Foster
In between picking up and putting down theses books, I also just picked up a copy of the baseball book The Code I have only read the preface of that book (written by Jack Morris, Rob Dibble, and Torri Hunter) but it is already destined to join the Top 10 - when I get the chance to read the rest of it.
What are you reading these days?
