W. W. W. Wednesday – My Reading List

I totally skipped the next book on my list and read something else instead. I’ll get to Aslan this week! I’m almost through with Reading the Bible in 90 Days! I’m on schedule to finish by Saturday, which is Day 90. I’m hoping to finish on Friday. this has taken a lot of time, but it has been sooooo worth it!

* What are you currently reading? – The Torah Blessing by Larry Huch. I am totally enjoying this book! I like how he tells us the Hebrew word that is used and how it it translated. If your interested in Bible history, the Biblical Feasts, and how we can be blessed by learning about these, you’ll love this book. I’m about half way through now, and I have learned so much.

I am also reading The Dawn Treader out loud to the kids.

* What did you recently finish reading? – Fool-Proofing Your Life – How to deal Effectively with the Impossible People in Your Life by Jan Silvious The world is filled with difficult people. Gain the tools you need to get along with others and conduct your relationships in a manner that honors God and preserves your sanity.

This was such an awesome book! For some reason, I thought this book would be geared toward the workplace, I don’t know where I got that idea. This book starts with giving a Biblical definition of a fool, and takes you through identifying the fools in your life. Whether they are at work, at home, or at church. Whether your fool is your co-worker, friend, family member, child, or spouse, this book helps you learn to deal effectively with them. There are several pages at the end of every chapter with Bible verses, questions to ask yourself, a few quizzes to help you identify your problem areas with your fool. I highly recommend this book! I found it so helpful in dealing with my fool. It also helped me to clarify what I want in my life, the things that are important to me, and how to get there with my fool. I think this book would also be helpful to older teens.

* What do you think you’ll read next? – Knowing Aslan The author uses parallels to lead the reader to an understanding of Christ and what He did for them by drawing lessons from The Chronicles of Narnia.

In addition to reading the above books, this week I continued a Read the Bible in 90 days program. So that’s keeping me busy reading, also.

It sure sounds like you have been busy reading Linda. I think fool-proofing your life is a book for me.
