READING IS LEADING

I know there are different ways to learn, however for me reading is one of the best means.  So as we wrap up 2011 and move forward into 2012 -- I have laid out my first several reads for the new year.  This is one of the best ways for me to keep on track in my self-leading efforts.

I can feel the difference when I do not regularly seed my mind with good brain food.

So in the column on my right: What's In My Kindle I have laid out the several books I plan to read this year.

Simply put "READING IS LEADING!"

What are you reading as you enter this new year?

Chip, thanks for the encouragement. I have seen the Tim Tebow book a few times at bookstores, I am put on my list for the next quarter of 2012. Let me know what your thoughts when you finish it. For fun currently reading Mocking Jay the last of the Hunger Games Trilogy.

Thanks for sharing this Rod - I always appreciate your reading lists and your ability to select some great titles.

My Daughter bought me the Tim Tebow Story, Through My Eyes: http://bit.ly/rK0i4w

I've gotten through the first three chapters and so far its a very compelling read.

A 16-Year Journey Comes to a Close On February 25, 1993 being relatively new to San Diego (just 2 months) my roommate at the time, Clint Hardick, invited me to the first public gathering of Horizon Christian Fellowship Rancho San Diego. It was there in Suite 160 on 2930 Jamacha Road where I heard founding pastor Mike Burns share the vision that he and his wife, Laurie, had to start the kind of church that could potentially reach the 400,000 plus unchurched in East County San Diego. Though I was on staff at another church at time -- I remember leaving inspired by what I heard that evening -- I count it as such a privilege to have been amongst the first 40 that were there that evening. It would be almost 3 and 1/2 years later on September 7, 1996 that I had the privilege of joining the staff of that church that we know now as Journey Community Church where I have been serving ever since. During this time I have held almost every pastoral role in the life of our church -- most recently serving as the connections pastor -- where I provided leadership to our small groups ministries. Well last weekend, August 3 & 5, I shared with our church that my time at Journey was coming to a close. The short of it is that after much prayer, fasting, counsel and the leading of God's Spirit I accepted the call to serve as the executive pastor of Crossroads Church in Loveland Colorado....
