Update on “Twelve for 2012″…
At the beginning of the year I posted my Twelve for 2012, the twelve books I was going to read this year. I thought I’d post an update on how I’m doing with the list.
Here are the books on the list which I finished:
The Church and the New Media
– Brandon Vogt
I’m Not Being Fed!
– Jeff Cavins
The Passion of Jesus Christ
– John Piper
Father Brown of the Church of Rome
– G.K Chesterton
The Story of Christianity
– Justo Gonzalez
I suppose that it’s no surprise that I was unable to restrict myself to my initial reading list! Yes, that’s right, I’ve been naughty and read some books that weren’t on the list:
The One Thing
– Matthew Kelly
Pillar of Fire and Truth
– Catholic Answers
Quitter
– Jon Acuff
I am currently reading:
How To Listen When God Is Speaking
– Mitch Pacwa, SJ
…and here are the books which I still have yet to read:
Rediscover Catholicism – Matthew Kelly
Godless Delusion – Patrick Madrid & Kenneth Hensley
The Path of Life – Cyprian Smith OSB
Jesus of Nazareth – Pope Benedict XVI
Jesus Among Other Gods – Ravi Zacharias
Philosophy For Dummies – Thomas Morris
So I have six books to read in five months. This means that I have to read at least one book each month until the end of the year. Fortunately, the books on the list which I’ve already read are generally the longer ones. All the remaining books to read, with the exception of Pope Benedict’s Jesus of Nazareth, are reasonably short.
