So I don’t really make New Years resolutions, but here’s one that I’m trying to do.

I’d really like to start reading more books and less blogs. I think that the shortened, super-condensed info found in the blogs I read helps give me a shorter attention span, and less of an ability to actually think on a higher level.

So I’ve gotten rid of pretty much all the blogs that either:

a. Aren’t of interest to me professionally (ie: web design, church communications)
b. Aren’t written by one of my friends/someone I know personally (so I probably haven’t gotten rid of your blog, since the only people who read my blog are people who know me )

Anyhow, I’ve got a bunch of books lined up…most of which I already owned but hadn’t had time/energy to read after the hour or so a day that I spent reading blogs.

Right now I’m reading “The Tipping Point” by Malcolm Gladwell. It’s definitely an interesting book, with some pretty big implications for the church. It’s all about the way that ideas, trends and movements spread. Definitely a must-read for anyone who’s trying to start a movement.

After I finish that, I’m planning on reading “The Divine Commodity” followed by “Finally Alive“.

Anyhow, what books are you reading?
