A redeemed child of God, happy husband, homeschooling dad of nine, and lifelong lover of good books.
Hey Dads,
Have you considered doing your own year-in-review? How could that help you lead your family?
What are the best books we’ve read in the last year? And how could we better keep track of our reading next year?
Tune in for answers!
–Nathan
At the end of each year, I like to look back over the past twelve months and review events and experiences, for a few reasons:
1. First, I want to get an idea of how God has led me and my family and how He has changed us to conform more closely to the image of His Son.
2. Next, I want to thank God for what He has accomplished and allowed us to accomplish.
3. Finally, I want to see in which areas need repentance and growth.
📖 10. The Five Love Languages: How to Express Heartfelt Commitment to Your Mate, by Gary Chapman
📖 9. How to Be Your Daughter’s Daddy: 365 Ways to Show Her You Care, by Dan Bolin
📖 8. How to Be Your Little Man’s Dad: 365 Things to Do With Your Son, by Dan Bolin and Ken Sutterfield
📖 7. We Were Soldiers Once, and Young: Ia Drang, the Battle that Changed the War in Vietnam, by Gen. Harold G. Moore and Joseph L. Galloway
📖 6. Way of the Warrior Kid, by Jocko Willink
📖 5. My Brother’s Keeper: Christians Who Risked All To Protect Jewish Targets of the Nazi Holocaust, by Rod Gragg
📖 4. Person of Interest: Why Jesus Still Matters in a World That Rejects the Bible, by J. Warner Wallace (read to my wife)
📖 3. God of the Aurora, by Bruce Hamilton (read to family)
📖 2. Walking With God Through Pain and Suffering, by Timothy Keller (audiobook)
📖 1. The Power of Christ’s Prayer Life, by Charles Haddon Spurgeon
Of course, my wife and I prioritize reading the Bible daily. In addition to reading individually, we finished reading through the New Testament together again. This provided for uncounted discussions about doctrine and practice, both for our own walks with God and for how to lead our family.
As we get ready to enter 2024, which books do you look forward to reading individually or with your family?
