My Faith-Based Reading Bucket List for 2024

In February of last year, I decided to get back into reading books (I wanted to mainly read physical books, because I am at a point where I love turning physical pages. For quite some time, I had been listening to audiobooks, which I still love! But, it's time to go back to physical books). 

I did well for a few months, and then I ended up getting sick a couple times (a cold in July--I did test for COVID, and it was negative for that, thank God!--and then infections in both ears in September--SO not fun!!).

During the time I didn't have any illnesses, I didn't really have the energy to read much of anything, as all that took it out of me. But I was slowly getting back into the swing of things and was able to read more and more.

Hopefully I can read more this year, and not get sick, or at least have more energy to read, as I love books and reading.

Here is my faith-based reading bucket list for 2024:
  • Through a Season of Grief: Devotions for Your Journey from Mourning to Joy by Bill Dunn and Kathy Leonard

  • Heaven: Your Real Home...From a Higher Perspective by Joni Eareckson Tada

  • Beside Bethesda: 31 Days Toward Deeper Healing by Joni Eareckson Tada

  • Have You Felt Like Giving Up Lately? Hope & Healing When You Feel Discouraged by David Wilkerson

  • Humility: The Journey Towards Holiness by Andrew Murray

  • You're Not Enough (and That's Okay) by Allie Beth Stuckey

  • Mere Christianity by C. S. Lewis

  • More Than a Carpenter by Josh D. McDowell and Sean McDowell

  • Live on Purpose: 100 Devotions for Letting Go of Fear and Following God by Sadie Robertson Huff

  • Gentle and Lowly: The Heart of Christ for Sinners and Sufferers by Dane C. Ortlund

  • Friendship with God: Discover God's Relational Presence and Receive Peace, Identity, and Purpose for Your Life by Jamie Moore

  • The Purpose Driven Life: What on Earth Am I Here For? by Rick Warren


What Christian/faith-based books do you want to read this year? I hope to read at least half of the books on this list this year.

Without

It has been a while since I have participated in Five Minute Friday, but I was inspired to write when I saw this week's prompt. I love to write, but sometimes it's hard to find inspiration.  When I saw this prompt, though, I knew exactly what I wanted to say, and am happy to be participating in this week's link up. This week's FMF prompt is: Without It has been almost 14 1/2 years since my mom passed away And every day without her is bittersweet 14 1/2 years without her voice Without her home cooked meals Without her love Without her comfort Without her We may not have seen eye to eye on some things But I loved her very much I always will She was there for me Whenever I was struggling She was there for me During some of the best days The good things that I have accomplished since she died Were bittersweet without her here to share in the memories I look forward to the day when I get to see her again But until then I will live my life to the best of my ability Knowing t...

Reading the Bible in One Year: June Reading

How is another month starting already?! I can't believe how fast the days have gone by. I have done pretty good in May. There were a couple of days where I forgot to reading the day's passage, but I just reading the following day, along with the next day's reading. To be honest, I am so surprised that I have been able to keep up with this challenge, and not given up. I usually give up on things after a while, but I am still going with this bible reading challenge, and I am very happy with myself! Here is June's reading list: Psalms 119:89-176 Song of Solomon 1-8 Proverbs 1-3 Proverbs 4-6 Proverbs 7-9 Proverbs 10-12 Proverbs 13-15 Proverbs 16-18 Proverbs 19-21 Proverbs 22-24 1 Kings 5-6, 2 Chronicles 2-3 1 Kings 7, 2 Chronicles 4 1 Kings 8, 2 Chronicles 5 2 Chronicles 6-7, Psalm 136 Psalm 134, Psalms 146-150 1 Kings 9, 2 Chronicles 8 Proverbs 25-26 Proverbs 27-29 Ecclesiastes 1-6 Ecclesiastes 7-12 1 Kings 10-11, 2 Chronicles 9 Proverbs 30-31 1 Kings 12-14 2 Chronicles 10...

Reading the Bible in One Year: November Reading

October went well, in terms of keeping up with the readings. I didn't miss a day, and I am finally in the New Testament. I have been looking forward to reading the New Testament for quite some time. I can't believe I am nearing the end of this Bible reading plan already. I have enjoyed it and look forward to seeing how I do in 2024. This year, I wanted to focus only on reading the Bible, but next year, I hope to go more in depth and study the word, as well as to memorize some verses. Here is this month's reading list: Matthew 20-21 Luke 18:15-19:48 Mark 11, John 12 Matthew 22, Mark 12 Matthew 23, Luke 20-21 Mark 13 Matthew 24 Matthew 25 Matthew 26, Mark 14 Luke 22, John 13 John 14-17 Matthew 27, Mark 15 Luke 23, John 18-19 Matthew 28, Mark 16 Luke 24, John 20-21 Acts 1-3 Acts 4-6 Acts 7-8 Acts 9-10 Acts 11-12 Acts 13-14 James 1-5 Acts 15-16 Galatians 1-3 Galatians 4-6 Acts 17-18:18 1 Thessalonians 1-5, 2 Thessalonians 1-3 Acts 18:19-19:41 1 Corinthians 1-4 1 Corinthians 5-8
