Our Reading for 2010

Our Reading for 2010

Below you will find a list of the books read in 2010 by the four bloggers that blog here. We share this list for several reasons.

Why we share this?

• To give glory to God – it is by grace that we read, desire to read, learn from our reading. Books would burst into flames instantaneously in hell, thus, even the fact that we hold books in our hand is a testament to God's grace.
• To encourage – if we can read more, so can you. We are not special; just four sinners reading books. We want you to read more because we believe it is a significant tool of God for your sanctification and ours.
• To remember – reflecting on the books we read reminds us of God's goodness in our lives. He helps us grow in likeness to His Son through beholding His Son; and we behold Him in books.
• To promote – we want to promote the idea of reading in community. We read books together intentionally and unintentionally. And we encouraged and urged each other on, sometimes solemnly and sometimes sarcastically, to read to the glory of God. We think you should find some like-minded brothers or sisters and read together.

A few more things: if a book appears more than once it is because more than one of us read it. The commentaries were read in their entirety. There were a few more books started in 2010, but not finished. Look for them in the 2011 list.
