Why I Love Re-reading These Books

There’s a lot of those, so I’ll just list a few and the why.

The Bible: A sweeping saga of people and relationship with God. I try to read it cover to cover once a year, sometimes I even get through it twice. How can you go wrong reading lessons from the Creator and applying those lessons to your life.

Courageous by Randy Alcorn – the novelization of the awesome movie by the Kendrick Brothers. Since I write about Cops tossed into touch emotional, moral, and spiritual situations, it’s only natural I’d gravitate tot he book.

Last Stand of the Tin Can Sailors by James D. Hornfischer – A page turner of an epic David Vs. Goliath naval battle. A handful of U.S. Navy destroyers, destroyer escorts, and Jeep Carriers vs the cream of the Japanese navy (battleships, cruisers, destroyers). It’s a battle we should never have won, and never had the stakes been higher. Tom Clancy couldn’t have come up with a battle more intense, yet it’s not a work of fiction. it happened.

To the list add 2001: A Space Odyssey, Star Trek: Vendetta, and An Unfinished Life.
