My 2015 Top 5 "Top Reading Lists of 2015"

If you're like me, you've perhaps seen some "Top Reading Lists of 2015" floating around the internet and social media.  Rather than adding my own such list (though click here to see some other books I've recently recommended), I figured this year I'd continue my two-year tradition of highlighting some of the "Top Reading Lists of 2015" that I pay attention to.   

In other words, check out these book lists and you'll find some books that are worth reading.  Of course, keep in mind that not every book is created equal, remember to read discerningly, and always remember that a careful and responsible reading of the Bible should be our final authority.  But I generally think these "sources" are worth listening to for some worthwhile reads (I know I'll hope to be reading many of these I've not yet!) - and to see what's current in Christian publishing today.  

If you're still looking for some Christmas gift ideas or want some reading material for yourself while taking some vacation days, these lists can come in handy that way too!

Here are my top 5 "Top Reading Lists of 2015" - in no particular order:

• Christianity Today's 2016 Book Awards
• The Gospel Coalition (Editor's Picks) - Top Books of 2015
• Desiring God - 15 Best Books of 2015 (Tony Reinke)
• Reformation 21 - 2015 End of Year Review of Books
