Being a road warrior, I find myself having plenty of time to read when I’m on flights or delayed at the airport. That combined with the fact that I love to read wether it’s for leisure or for learning! I am usually reading a few books at a time: a leisure book, a book for my faith & ministry, and a professional development book. I wanted to share the ones I’m currently working my way through and I’m living all three!
Leisure: The Last Thing He Told Me by Laura Dave
I am a huge fan of the psychological thriller genre w he n it comes to leisure reading! This one hooked my on the first chapter, which I don’t always find in every book.
This is set around a wife who’s husband disappears mysteriously, leaves her a cryptic note, and she must now protect his daughter, whom she has a difficult relationship with.
I am only about a quarter of the way through the book, but I can already tell it’s going to be one of my favorites this year!
Faith-Based: Love Does by Bob Goff
This is actually a book I’ve read before, but it was so impactful that I picked it up again. It’s really about how our love as Christ-followers should compel us to love all people and what that can look like. It has really been convicting for me both times that I have read it.
Bob Goff is a wonderful author and I love any book he writes. I’ve had the opportunity to see him speak at a conference and the world needs more people like him!
Professional Development: When the Adults Change Everything Changes by Paul Dix
I get to work with many educators in my job and this book really flips the perspective on behavioral change in the schools. It really takes a look at the adult behavior and their approach to discipline. It encourages adults to view themselves as the ultimate influence to shaping a child’s behavior.
I highly recommend it, especially if you work in education! However, I think this is a great book for any adult that interacts with children.
