Mentored by the Books I Read, by the Authors I Never Met (December 2025)

J. Oswald Sanders, in his book 'Spiritual Leadership' (revised, 2017), writes: “If people are known by the company they keep, so also their character is reflected in the books they read. A leader’s reading is the outward expression of their inner hunger and aspirations. The vast number of titles pouring from the presses today makes discriminating choice essential. We can afford to read only the best, only that which invigorates our mission. Our reading should be regulated by who we are and what we intend to accomplish.” Sanders reminds us that what we choose to read both reveals and shapes who we are, especially for those called to lead. In a world flooded with information, intentional and discerning reading is not a luxury but a responsibility, as it profoundly influences our convictions, clarity, and calling.

Since mentoring can be understood as one life empowering another, I have always regarded certain authors as some of my most influential mentors. Though I never met them personally, their lives and insights came alive in my study as I spent countless hours reading their works, eager to learn and grow. Authors who have deeply shaped me include J. I. Packer (Knowing God), John Piper (Don’t Waste Your Life), John MacArthur (Ashamed of the Gospel), Adrian Rogers (Unveiling the End Times in Our Time), Oswald Smith (The Challenge of Missions), John Stott (The Message of 2 Timothy), Michael Heiser (The Unseen Realm), John Eldredge (Wild At Heart), Anthony Robbins (Awaken the Giant Within), Jim Rohn (The Art of Exceptional Living), John Maxwell (The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership), and C. S. Lewis (The Chronicles of Narnia), among others.

In addition, biographies of heroes of the faith such as Charles Spurgeon, John Sung, and William Tyndale have also been a great help to me, as their lives and testimonies continue to instruct, inspire, and strengthen my walk with the LORD. As Sanders so aptly puts it, “The leader should read to have fellowship with great minds. Through books, we hold communion with the greatest spiritual leaders of the ages" 💯

Reading, Fast and Slow (November 2025)

I often read comments from people who say they love to read Scripture slowly and without rushing. I wholeheartedly agree. However, reading only this way means many never finish the whole Bible in their lifetime, or it takes 10+ years to do so. Too long. As a result, some Christians, even faithful ones, may pass on without knowing the whole counsel of God. My personal suggestion is to read the Bible both fast and slow, a phrase I borrowed from Daniel Kahneman’s Thinking, Fast and Slow (2011), though I use it differently.

Reading fast means reading for the big picture of Scripture. This helps us understand how each book fits together, showing the logic, connections, and flow of God’s redemption story. I imagine there are no chapter or verse numbers and read each book as a complete work. I read narratives and prophecies like a novel, and poetry and letters like scrolls, often finishing shorter books in one sitting or one day (when I'm busy). For historical books, I use audiobooks and Bible overviews to help me move quickly and remember the stories. With this approach, I can read through the Bible once or twice each year and still have time to read other helpful books.

At the same time, I read slowly for deep study and reflection. Currently, I study Psalms weekly with friends, reading and praying through each psalm carefully and thoughtfully, a journey that will likely take about three years. I strengthen my learning by recording podcast lessons and reading Bible commentaries alongside Scripture. I also create short video teachings on the Gospel of Luke, focusing on small passages and explaining them in simple but meaningful ways, a project lasting about one and a half to two years. Reading slowly allows me to notice the details and beauty of God’s living Word that faster reading might miss.

Try, reading, fast and slow 😉 #ServeToLead #LeadersAreReaders #LetsMakeReadingCoolAgain
