The Reading Begins... ! Book Reading for January

Hello fellow book worms,

I trust you had a good holiday season; of maybe resting, eating, and spending time with the family. It is good to be alive to see yet another year and indeed a new decade. I pray these are your best yet!

Thank you for the emails and comments regarding the previous book reads.

Summary of lessons from last reading:

• we were inspired by the encouragement to push themselves just that little further, realising that they were indeed made for greatness.
  
• We also learnt a great lesson about time management. From the Prime minister, to the Queen, to you and I, we all get 24 hours in a day and no more. What we choose to do with these hours on a daily basis will eventually manifest itself in our future.
  
• Finally, we learnt that there is no coach, teacher, guide like God. He is the good and perfect Shepherd afterall. We simply have to trust Him 100% to teach and guide us through the sometimes trying pathways in life.
  

BOOK READING FOR JANUARY

The title of the book selected to open the reading sessions for this year seems appropriate. It is about learning the reason why we are here to do what we must and should do; the reason for our being.

This month we will be CONSUMING THIS BOOK:

Brief synopsis:

There has never been a better time to be alive! God's plan since before time began is about to unfold worldwide. He is going to establish His rule through people like you. He will cover the earth with His glory by pouring Himself into His people.

Monroe shows the reader how to enjoy continuous fellowship with the Lord. Throughout the book he offers answers to earthly problems, such as: warfare and conflict, violence, criminal offenses, the AIDS epidemics. He discusses child abuse, environmental issues, cultural clashes, economic crisis, political and religious corruption, and the resulting culture of fear.

BOOK READING FOR AUGUST - NOVEMBER

Hello fellow bookworms,

I hope you are basking and living out the wisdom you have been gathering from all the pages so far.

For the next few months, we will be consuming and hopefully putting to practice some of the books below.

We start with a recent book written by renowned writer, T.D. Jakes: Reposition Yourself: Living Life Without Limits.

Brief Synopsis:

In Reposition Yourself, T.D. Jakes insightfully enables you to adjust to the many changes that life brings. Along with confronting areas where subtle passivity or poor choices may have held you back, Jakes instructs you in how to manage change and maximize life now. With wisdom and practicality, Jakes covers financial, relational, and spiritual creativity and shows how adapting to transitional life moments can lead to an enriched existence filled with contentment at every stage. If you're seeking to make the future years even more productive, Reposition Yourself offers reality-based plans to help you embrace and expect change, rather than fear it.

The second book has been around for a while. It is written by best selling author Alec Mackenzie and Pat Nikerson: The Time Trap

Brief synopsis

Since it was first published, The Time Trap, by internationally known authority Alec Mackenzie, has indeed become The Classic Book on Time Management, as proclaimed in its subtitle. Based on the theory that self-management is the key to handling the time crunch that we all face, it focuses primarily on Mackenzie's 20 biggest time wasters, such as telephone interruptions, the inability to say "no," and personal disorganization, and offers clear step-by-step ways to combat them. The updated third edition also includes information on time problems caused by technology, downsizing, and self-employment.

The final book is written by another best selling author Larry Julian : God is my Coach

Brief Synopsis

Business leadership coach Larry Julian helps readers navigate "the gray zone"-those make or break moments of decision making that are filled with uncertainty. There are times when intellectual and business logic are tested beyond one's perceived limits, when important decisions have no correct answers and can only be made by a leap of faith. Our true greatness lies within the gray. Julian shows readers that, with God's guidance, uncertainty is the very catalyst for making wise, impactful decisions that shape destinies. We learn to live and lead in the context of uncertainty rather than becoming paralyzed by it. GOD IS MY COACH is the means to living a significant life and to leading others in an uncertain world.

Apart from paper back, these books are available through the following media formats:

• As an e-book, through Kindle.
• Audio (CD and MP3) from amazon.com

We will be reading this books from 02 to 30 November 2009

If you would like to suggest a book for next month or future reading, please send details to remi.banjo@adayingodswill.co.uk.

I hope you will enjoy reading these books, discussing key attributes of the book and hopefully putting some of the wisdom into practise.
