okay um
read any good books lately
uh yes i i've read uh several good books lately uh
lot of them uh related to um
business and financial matters since that's what i do for a living
oh okay um-hum
how about yourself
uh well i'm in graduate school and so i read a lot of books but i don't know if i consider very many of them good
um
i haven't read a book for enjoyment since i guess around Christmas um i received received uh
uh several books for Christmas and at Christmas break i read uh Sarum by uh uh a fellow named Rutherford
yes
uh it's the history of um well it's sort sort of the historical the historical fiction about uh the Salisbury area in in England
um-hum
uh and so uh i i really enjoyed that book a lot uh he's not quite as good as you know Michener or some of uh some of the other historical writers but he he did his job well so
yeah
well that sounds good
uh
do you find it uh do do you find you have much chance to read for for just pleasure or mostly for business
no i read for pleasure some also i read a book recently called Iron John have you seen that by Bly
um-hum
i don't think i have seen it
okay well it's a book about uh
uh Greek gods and and Greek um mythology
uh-huh
as well as uh men and interacting with other men and a book about uh men and how they mature through life
um-hum
and how they deal with life itself
oh
okay i think i have heard about that
yeah
but it's uh it's all revolved around uh mythology
uh-huh
uh as far as uh traditions from uh other cultures and our culture
um-hum
and how we uh interact with one another
um-hum
yeah that sounds great did did it have something to mention about um sort of uh cultural rituals of of manhood
yes
okay yeah i have heard of that i have uh
someone suggested that i read it is it Iron John
yes
okay good
by Bly B L Y i believe it is
B L Y okay
um-hum
great
and uh it's a very interesting book
uh-huh
uh what are your favorite
uh
do you have a favorite subject to read whether it be science fiction or or history or
well it depends again if we're talking about uh
um i read a lot of religious books
um-hum
uh just because i have an interest in that area
um-hum
and i read a lot of books in the area of uh um psychology and self help type uh materials
um-hum
okay
uh always trying to understand people better and understand myself in a relation to other people and try to understand where the people are coming from because i'm in a people business
um-hum
um-hum
okay
and uh so that's that's that that's my work is my hobby
um-hum that's
so i i enjoy it
sounds great
um uh who is your uh who is your favorite religious author
well i don't know if i have a favorite
uh-huh
uh religious author
i would have to say that uh
some of the ones that consistently put out good materials
uh
you know that that's difficult because
one person might write one book real extremely well and some other ones might not write as well
um-hum
uh i have to stop here and think a second
one of the ones that i've read recently that i've read several of his books and i thought that each one of his books were good
he's the man out of San Antonio
and uh Max Lucado
Max Lucado
yeah
Max consistently consistently writes good books
yeah uh he's a great man i've met him several times uh
yes i i know him yeah
uh
uh
but uh there's other authors also that have uh
uh that write good books from time to time but not consistently put out the materials all the time
um-hum
um i'd say another which is a local writer here in Plano
um is
i'm trying to think of his name he's with the Bible church
and that is uh
i see his name but i can't i mean i see him but i can't see his name
but he uh he talks about uh he talks about a lot of different topics and dimensions of the church and
um-hum
