Jeff's 2017 Reads

Every year I post the books that  I hope to read in the new year. I try to have a number of books that vary in topic. I include books I read for family growth, leadership, history, theology, fun, and some for growth in a particular book of the Bible. Here is a look at the books I plan on reading in 2017.
