Confessions of a pastor

I have to be honest, I never read the following books:

  • Wild at Heart
  • Purpose Driven Church/Life/Youth Ministry/Husband/Dog/etc.
  • The Five Love Languages

And I don’t want to.

Remember that guy in high school that never read the books in English class and still pulled an A on the test? That was me. I got the A because I picked up all that I needed to know during the class discussion.

I feel the same way about a lot of books that seem relevant to my life. They get talked about so much over coffee, in sermons, on blogs and in other books that I pick up all the main points.

I think that’s probably a testament to how good these books are. They impacted so many people, that the second hand impact is still pretty good.

What book(s) have you skipped that you probably should have read?
