F<\/p>\n<p>Growing up, I&#8217;ve always enjoyed reading. My busy life (often <em>too<\/em> busy) over the past few years, though, has put a sharp limit on the amount of reading I&#8217;ve been able to do.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, God has blessed me with a few exceptions. As I&#8217;ve gotten on a more regular sleep schedule, I&#8217;ve been able to have more time for reading, both in the early mornings and in the evenings, and in that time I&#8217;ve started to catch up on a lot of the time that I&#8217;ve missed over the past few years.<\/p>\n<p>Of all the books I&#8217;ve read, there are a few that hold a special place in my heart. These are the ones that have had some of the greatest impact on who I am and how I live my life each day.<\/p>\n<p>And so, after finishing another and thanking God for it, I was impressed to make a bold offer here on my website. As these are books that have been an immeasurable blessing to me, I want them to be a blessing to you too.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;ll commit to reading them and sharing the books with others if they&#8217;ve been a blessing to you, I&#8217;m willing to send you any or all of the books on my list, free of charge.<\/p>\n<p>Take a look at the list and read my brief testimony for each on my new <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.jonathanwold.com\/free-books\">free books<\/a> (with a catch) page.<\/p>\n<p>May your day be richly blessed my friends! :)<\/p>\n<p>-Jonathan Wold<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In my time with God yesterday morning, I was impressed to add something new to my little website.
