I added a couple new items to the menu on your right today.  I am listing out what books I am currently reading and what books I have read this year.  I do this for two reasons.  One, I figure it might be nice for you to see what is feeding my brain.  A couple of my friends list these things on their site and I find it interesting.  Plus, all you xanga people put up the "what I'm reading/listening to" stuff each post.
Second, one of my goals is to read more this year.  While I was finishing my thesis, my reading was totally focused on worship in the last 200 years.  When I was finally done, I started reading the Chronicles of Narnia.  I struggled to make reading a priority and it took me forever to finish it.  Not reading is a dangerous thing if you are in the ministry in my opinion.  I believe I must continually be pushing my brain and learning so that what I am doing in ministry does not become stagnant or easy.
So, the lists are there so you can see what's going into my head. . .and if you would like, you can keep me accountable to making sure that I am actually reading and working my mind, rather than playing Web Sudoku.
