In pursuit of my self-described Christian Businessman PhD, I am on a quest to read 100 books to increase my knowledge, exposure and intellect. These are the books I read from January 2011 through July 2012.
| Generous Justice | Tim Keller | |
| The Weight of Glory | CS Lewis | |
| Think: The Life of Mind and the Love of God | John Piper | |
| Poke the Box | Seth Godin | |
| The Abolition of Man | CS Lewis | |
| The Great Divorce | CS Lewis | |
| Emotional Intelligence 2.0 | Travis Bradberry | |
| Social Intelligence | Daniel Goleman | |
| Kings Cross | Tim Keller | |
| Love Wins | Rob Bell | |
| The Imperfect Board Member | Jim Brown | |
| The Case for Christ | Lee Strobel | |
| Weird: Because Normal Isn’t Working | Craig Groschel | |
| Becoming a Contagious Christian | Bill Hybels | |
| Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln | Doris Kearns Godwin | |
| The Screwtape Letters | CS Lewis | |
| Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance | Robert Pirsig | |
| Heaven is for Real | Todd Burpo | |
| 1776 | David McCullough | |
| Today We Are Rich | Tim Sanders | |
| Erasing Hell: What God Said About Eternity | Francis Chan | |
| The Shack | William P. Young | |
| Simply Christian | NT Wright | |
| The Grand Weaver: How God Shapes Us | Ravi Zacharias | |
| Ministries of Mercy: The Call of Jericho Road | Tim Keller | |
| The Grace of God | Andy Stanley | |
| The Reason for God | Tim Keller | |
| Beyond Foundationalism: Shaping Theology in a Postmodern Context | Stanley Grenz |
Awesome list! I can’t help but notice there are no relatively old authors… If you have read that much Lewis you will know he suggests, “it is a good rule after reading a new book, never to allow yourself another new one till you have read an old one in between.”
Have you ever read John Ruskin on Economy? Try Unto This Last
(Amazon.com link): http://www.amazon.com/Unto-Other-Writings-Penguin-Classics/dp/0140432116
Best,

Thanks for the advice Todd. Any additional suggestions beyond Ruskin?
