Probably this semester the reading list will not be as interesting as last semester. Last semester I read a ton of books on transition and church growth. This semester I am reading about research. The reading is a little more tedious, but still helpful for what I am trying to accomplish. This was the first book I had to read. The book is a basic look into conducting research for the dissertation. It goes over quickly the various styles of gaining information. This book would be helpful for anyone doing a study on a congregation. Also, the book might be helpful in making sermons more interesting. Well, that might be a stretch. Anyone, if I read it, you hear about it. Yea, you guessed well, I have nothing today. In fact, the book’s picture does not even come up on Amazon.
