About meI am blessed with a beautiful wife and two wonderful grown kids, and am employed as a student services administrator at a large public university.

Besides reading, I enjoy classical music, classic movies, vintage television, and baseball. I also strum the guitar a little. I am in the early stages of a return to involvement in the voice-over field. And I recently began an online-based certificate program in copyediting.

About my libraryMy reading tastes are fairly broad, but I particularly enjoy history and biography, biblical studies, higher education, and America's pastime, baseball. I enjoy a good, vintage novel now and then, including anything by John Grisham or James Michener.

My wife enjoys works of fiction, and Christian fiction in particular, so many from that genre belong to her (GLC). She's read just about everything written by Bodie (and Brock) Thoene.

I also included a few books I've held onto since I was a kid, such as the Hardy Boys, because memories of reading them are among my happiest from those years. They helped set me on the enjoyable path of lifelong reading, and for that I'll always be grateful.

However, in the end, I must concur with Thomas a Kempis, who wrote this in his 15th Century classic, The Imitation of Christ: "Certainly, when Judgment Day comes we shall not be asked what books we have read, but what deeds we have done."

What's So Amazing About Grace? by Philip Yancey

Thank you for the comments on the Newsletter. I have not read as much this last year as I typically do. Very little reading for just pleasure... We are restructuring our educational system here and redesigning Sunday School to become more of the D6 concept... (Deut. 6) or it also call the Faith at Home movement. It is a integration of family discipleship. We are really just at the embryo stage. The books I have read so far have been Mark Holemen, Building Faith At Home and Ron Hunter's book Toy Box Leadership which I really enjoyed. I will be taking a few ideas for some sermons from it. We are also starting the Dave Ramsey video series called Financial Peace University. I need to read his book.

Happy reading!
John

Dean, I'm enjoying Alister Mcgrath's Christianity's Dangerous Idea. Also, Grant's Memoirs. Ken
