BOOK LIST #1

Hey guys! Today, I want to share with you my book list of books that I have had an impact in my life over the past year! I believe that reading is essential! I have each book title linked to Amazon if you’re interested in purchasing the book for yourself!

Friend of Sinners: Why Jesus Cares More About Relationship Than Perfection | Rich Wilkerson Jr.

In Friend of Sinners, Rich Wilkerson Jr. shows readers the profound implications of the reality that Jesus calls us friends not because of who we are or what we have done, but because of who he is. While he was on earth, he knew that people needed to belong before they would want to behave. He understood that the power within him was greater than the darkness around him, so he loved fearlessly.

Shoe Dog: A Memoir by the Creator of Nike | Phil Knight

Fresh out of business school, Phil Knight borrowed fifty dollars from his father and launched a company with one simple mission: import high-quality, low-cost running shoes from Japan. Selling the shoes from the trunk of his car in 1963, Knight grossed eight thousand dollars that first year. Today, Nike’s annual sales top $30 billion. In this age of start-ups, Knight’s Nike is the gold standard, and its swoosh is one of the few icons instantly recognized in every corner of the world.
