I love to read. Always have and always will. I consider it essential for my personal development and growth. And it's also therapeutic for me at times. One of my favorite things to do is go sit at Starbucks with a book and highlighter.

Great list of books! Our team is going through The Five Dysfunctions of a Team now. We are trying to build total openenss, honesty, and offered accountability into our team culture now.

It appears that a majority of your books have been written the last few years. You should consider mixing it up this year with some of the classics. One of my good friends on our teaching team says, "If he isn't dead, I'm not reading him." If you were interested I could recommend five old school books that deal with theology, church history, and biographies that will leave you begging for more.
