Television:

Usually watch discovery channel, discovery health, A&E, HGTV, and TLC. I really enjoy watching Overhaull'n, biker build offs, Jesse James, and American Chopper.

Books:

The Bible; "Mere Christianity" by C. S. Lewis; "The Cost of Discipleship" by Dietrich Bonhoeffer; "Desiring God" by John Piper; "Jesus Freak" series; "God's Greater Glory" by Bruce Ware; and "In God's Image," by Hoekema.

Heroes:

Those saints who die and place their lives on the line for Jesus Christ and his Gospel.
