I am a huge advocate for READING books that align with the season you are in. No, I’m not throwing shade at audiobooks because I love audiobooks. I found that when you read books that are tailored to your season, you:
- Mediate more – reflecting deeply on your current circumstances
- Gain a deeper understanding of the season you are in and why you are in that season
- Become more receptive to new insights or different perspectives that can improve or inform your current season; and
- Equip yourself with the right tools and willpower to create attack plans to change or celebrate your season.
So, I want to share my reading list for this season – the Lenten season and the days following Easter. During this season, my goal is to grow my faith in God, develop a stronger relationship with God, understand His abilities, and identify my purpose so I can pursue it relentlessly. My reading list consists of the following:
- The Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren – This is a re-read because I need a reboot and reminder of my purpose.
- The Circle Maker by Mark Batterson – I need to learn how to pray better. I want to be able to pray big audacious prayers. So, I purchased this book to help me with my prayer aspirations.
- Holy Bible Because the only way to get close to God is to get to know Him through His words and teachings.
- The Richest Man in Babylon by George S. Clason – This came as a recommendation from a friend.
- The Science of Getting Rich by Wallace D. Wattles – I heard about this book from a podcast or audiobook.
For these 40+ days of Lent, I am diving deep into these books. Let me know down below what you are reading this season! Cheers.
