As summer begins, we want to help you craft the perfect Summer Reading List. We asked Southeastern Seminary professors what books they would recommend, and we’re sharing their recommendations this summer.

Today, Dr. Brad Hambrick recommends a book for your summer reading list.

If you want to endure for decades in ministry, this book is a great investment of your time.

A Still and Quiet Mind: Twelve Strategies for Changing Unwanted Thoughts
by Esther Smith (P & R Publishing, 2022)

There are many excellent Christian books on what to think (sound doctrine and faithful ministry practice). There are far fewer books on how to think (good mental hygiene in the difficult seasons of life and ministry). Esther provides the latter in her book A Still and Quiet Mind. If you want to endure for decades in ministry, this book is a great investment of your time.
