EntreLeadership by Dave Ramsey

Solid read for any one in business, especially entrepreneurs.  If you are looking for good leadership advice as it applies to running a business than I highly recommend this book.  More Businesses should model themselves after Ramsey's philosophy.

LA Justice, Lessons from the Firestorm by Bob Vernon

I enjoyed this book as both a professional read on Law Enforcement and leadership as well as spiritual leadership and faith. Good insight to what was happening politically in LA at the time leading up to the Rodney King incident and the subsequent riots.

The Snow Angel by Glenn Beck

This is a fiction novel by Glenn Beck. I was surprised how good it was, very emotional read. Reads like a chick-flick but I think it is a must read for fathers. I couldn't put this book down and will use it as a reminder to be a good father and husband.

Spirituality for the Rest of Us by Larry Osborne

This book is written by one of the lead Pastors at my church, North Coast. It was a very good explanation on our relationship with God. This book is a must read for new and seasoned Christian alike.

Legends of Shannara - Bearers of the Black Staff by Terry Brooks

Great book! Of Course I love Terry Brooks and his link between Fantasy and Modern day. Legends of Shannara is another book is his transition work between the Word & Void series and the world of Shannara. If you love fantasy, read Terry Brooks.

The Original Argument - Glenn Beck

The Original Argument is a modern day adaptation of the Federalist Papers. Beck puts the Federalist Papers into 21st Century English. I believe this is a must read for anyone seeking to understand the intent of our founders who supported the U.S. Constitution. It the Constitution is the word of law then the federalist papers are the definition. The Original Argument is the Dictionary for the Constitution. READ IT!

Mouse and Motorcycle trilogy by Beverly Cleary

I read these three books to Westley. Short, fun and easy chapter books that even a toddler can find interesting. I have struggled to find good chapter books for toddlers and these have been the only ones I have had success with in terms of keeping them engaged.

Lone Survivor by Marcus Luttrell

I read this book awhile back and figured it was about time I added it onto the list of books I've read, especially in light of the devastating losses Seal Team 6 took in the downing of a Chinook in Afghanistan and their success in taking out Osama Bin Laden. The story of Marcus Luttrell is absolutely awe inspiring. The best weapon the U.S. Military has is its personnel, especially our Special Operations Forces. A great account of heroism and courage. A must read!

Epic by John Eldredge

Epic, much like "Wild at Heart" talks a lot about the war being waged against Satan and the desires/troubles of man's heart/soul. Eldredge relates often to Epic movies/novels such as "Lord of the Rings", "Braveheart", "Gladiator", "Titanic", "Last of the Mohicans" and more. Recommend this book to anyone who seeks to understand their role/place on earth and the struggle we face everyday against the "Evil One" and the Evil created from the propagation of "Original Sin"

Wild at Heart by John Eldredge

A good christian book about masculinity and God. This book provides great insight into the battle being waged against Satan, the soul of a Man, the battles we fight and love we seek. This was my first Eldredge book and it left me wanting more, so I followed it up by reading his novel Epic, which discusses many of the same issues of the Epic battle we Christians face against evil! If I had to pick one between the two, I'd go with Epic, but both are good reads.

The Fort by Bernard Cornwell (Audio)

Listened to this book on my iPod. Mildly entertaining however it began to drag as it became either too predictable or too frustrating watching the battles unfold. There are many books out there and I would not waste your time reading this one.

Free to Choose by Milton Friedman

Friedman is spot on! Some chapters were easier to read than others, but it is funny how when it comes to the economic principles and freedom the same things that applied years ago, apply today!

Michael Vey: The Prisoner of Cell 25

This book is a young adult fiction book, the first of a new series of, I believe 7 books. This is the first book published by Mercury Ink, which if you don't already know is Glenn Beck's new publishing company. Beck and other reviews say this book is the Harry Potter and Twilight series of this generation. I read it very quickly as it was easy to read and entertaining. Highly recommended!
