Drawing others to Christ... growing in grace... equipping... acceptance... change... risk-taking... members' gifts... spiritually grounded...

Whether you want to learn more about why Jesus matters today, strengthen relationships with those close to you, learn to hear God's voice, or figure out how to follow that voice together as a church, these summer reading recommendations offer opportunities to learn, change, take a risky step in faith, and much more.

Each of the phrases above are part of SMC's vision and values. The books listed below were chosen with our vision and values in mind.

You can order the books on your own, stop by the table in the church foyer to order a copy of each book, or check it out from our church library.

Our prayer is that these books will help you grow in your personal relationship with Christ, your relationships with others, and in the ways you use your spiritual gifts to serve and minister to others, both inside and outside SMC.
