Just finished reading Primal by Mark Batterson tonight, GREAT book!!! If you plan on reading a book on top of your Bible reading to start the New Year, I highly suggest you read Primal! I have said it so many times, all that really matters is that we love God with our everything and Pastor Mark Batterson brings out this very point so very well. It all comes back to us loving God with ALL of our heart, mind, soul, and strength. When we do that we become a reflection of Him, and that is what he has called us to be, Christians, which by definition means "Christ like."
My favorite line from the book was, Mark's pre-marital advice to all unmarried young men, "taking out the trash is romantic." That is something that is so easy to forget and something that more married men, including myself need to remember. You treated your wife like a queen before you were married, so why have you stopped now? There is my rant for the day!!
God Bless,
Nathan
