Industry Reviews

'I was always taught that 'leaders are readers'. I think that is true for everyone, especially for anyone who wants to be a disciple of Jesus, because we are called to go deep and get beneath the surface of things. Reading exposes us to wisdom, offers perspectives which challenge our limited thinking, and enables us to learn from the experience of others. This book not only inspired me to read more but gave me skills to read more effectively for greater benefit!'
