Books I Read in 2011

I confess since becoming a mother I don’t normally read a lot (I was a bookworm as a child), but this year I did.  I am sort of proud of the books I read this year, so I thought I would link up over at Nesting Place.  I don’t normally read so many Christian Life books, but you can tell a lot about what I was doing this year by the books on my list.  I’ve been writing for a Christian women’s conference.

Books Read in 2011:

• One Thousand Gifts
• The Pressure’s Off
• TrueFaced
• Speak Up with Confidence
• God is Closer than you Think
• The Help
• Craving Grace
• The Pursuit of God (a reread)
• When a Woman Trusts God
• Gospel Wakefulness

hmm, I thought there was going to be more.  Guess I didn’t read as many as I thought!

Books that I started and did not finish and perhaps will in 2012:

• Abide in Christ
• Grace Awakening
• The Practice of the Presence of God
• Mad Church Disease: Overcoming the Burnout Epidemic

Some that I have and hope to read in 2012:

• Grace for the Good Girl.*
• Blue like Jazz

*Anyone need a copy?  I wanted to give one away.  Leave me a comment, and it could be yours.  Yes, I know this blog is brand new and a don’t have many readers, but none the less.

Bible Studies read and completed (*two of them I’d already done previously):

• David: Seeking a Heart Like His
• Jonah: A Life Interrupted
• Esther: It’s Tough being a Woman*
• Ruth: Loss, Love, and Legacy*
• One in a Million

God has taught me so much this year.  I have to say I really enjoyed all of the books I read, especially The Help, One Thousand Gifts, and Gospel Wakefulness.  One I read and did not enjoy was Speak Up with Confidence.
