Praise God from whom all blessings flow; Praise him all creatures here below; Praise him above you heavenly hosts; Praise him Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Amen.

Q: What is God like? A: “The Lord, the Lord, a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness, keeping steadfast love for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin.” Exodus 34:6,7

This past year, we witnessed God move in powerful ways through our churches and campus ministries. As we step into 2026, we are trusting for even more open doors to plant campus-reaching churches around the world. youtu.be/U5-_DPBXUfM

“I am not myself much concerned with the question of influence, or with those who have impressed their names upon the public by catching the morning tide and rowing very fast in the direction in which the current was flowing.” —T.S. Eliot #againstthetide #noninfluencer

As in previous years, I had a difficult time narrowing my list to ten this year. Many significant, great, and entertaining books were overlooked. But rules are rules, and this is a Top 10 Book list, not a Top 11, 14, or 16 list. stevemurrell.com/my-top-10-book…
