Abundant living by E. Stanley Jones
Jones has an impressively analytical approach to how to live life in all its fullness - predating many of the 21st century's approaches to life coaching. He addresses obstacles to a happy life (many from within ourselves) but also resources we can find - both internal and external - to orientate ourselves to a happy life. A year with this book is a year well spent!
A biography of Gandhi written by a world-famous missionary/evangelist in India during the 40 turbulent years of the country's struggle for independence. An intimate friend of Gandhi, with whom the author often disagreed, but who showed the author "more of the spirit of Christ than perhaps any other [person] East or West.
