Barnabas to Kin Ring, Yance, and Jubal Sackett.
I read ALL of L'Amours' books in my teens and everyone afterwards as they came out until he died in 1988 at the age of 90. Recently, just looking for something to read, I picked up Jubal Sackett to read again after 20 years and was captivated by the rich history involved in L'Amours' words. Though I know much of L'Amours' "ways" shaped some of my own ideas about reading, I did not really appreciate the depth of his research and historical focus.
There was a reason that all of his 105 works were still in print at the time of his death.
I agree with Tim Keller, “I read because I’m desperate.” While reading by itself will not make one a better leader or follower, reading well will improve both. Yet, even then, one must take the knowledge and allow it to change his/her life. Read purposefully.
