This is The 10ofThose Podcast, a show for curious readers seeking to learn more about the Christian literature - how we can read more, read better and use books in our discipleship and evangelism. We discuss all things reading, and its impact on our day to day life, living for Jesus. 10ofThose is a Christian bookseller and publisher, handpicking the best books from across the publisher, selling books that point to Jesus. Everything we sell is discounted and we use our profits to support missions around the world. The Podcast is hosted by Rob Baggaley, Laurie Rayes and 10ofThose CEO Jonathan Carswell (Twitter: @jdcarswell). Follow 10ofThose on social media: @10ofthose @10ofthoseusa @10ofthoseca
