2. 2022 Christian Reading Challenge by Tim Challies. It is that time of year where we tend to think of what we want the next year to hold. For many, this means a goal to read more books. Tim Challies offers a nuanced plan using four categories: The Light Reader, Avid Reader, Committed Reader, and Obsessed Reader. Use this as a resource to read more this year.

4. How to Get Your Finances in Order for 2022 by Budget Mom. While you should be keeping up with your finances at least monthly, it is good to do a deeper dive at least once a year.
