Today in What Would Jesus Ask You Today?

Have you never read . . . ?" - Matthew 21:16.

It is said that leaders are readers. Reading expands your world and gives you creative ideas and ways of communicating and processing your own thoughts. It also gives you more substance that the Lord can quicken in you to be more useful for His purposes. Do you read? What are you reading and why? To expand your world and learn, or simply to combat boredom?

Of course, you should read the Word as the cornerstone of any reading program, but then there should be other things that you read if you are going to grow. Read 2 Timothy 4:13 and see that Paul had a collection of parchments and books that were important to him. Do you?
