Reading Resources
An intelligent heart acquires knowledge, and the ear of the wise seeks knowledge.
Proverbs 18:15
Proverbs 18:15
Followers of Jesus are called to be disciples. The word disciple literally means student or learner, so the acts of learning and seeking to grow in knowledge are essential parts of being a Jesus-follower. The practice of consistent reading is an excellent addition to the life of any learner. With the overwhelming volume of reading material available, it can be difficult to know which books to read. Our staff wants to help! Below you will find books recommended by our church staff divided into various categories. For avid readers seeking access to library programs or free books, we have included local library resources at the bottom of the page.
