These are my favorite books. Most of these are books about Christianity and Christian living.
10) Sketches in Church History (S. M. Houghton) Buy it at Amazon.Com
I’ve always wanted to know more about Church history, but found most books boring. This book balances an overview approach with enough detail and first hand accounts to keep it interesting.
9) Tale of Three Kings (Gene Edwards) Actually out of print, but they can order it for you! Buy it at Amazon.Com
Excellent book on the concept of submission and humility. An easy 30 minute read too!
8) Pilgrim’s Progress (John Bunyan) Hardcover in modern English. Buy it at Amazon.Com Softcover Version. Buy it at Amazon.Com
I would probably be shot if I did not include this.
7) Evangelism and the Sovereignty of God (J. I. Packer) Buy it at Amazon.Com
Excellent book on what i once thought was a difficult topic (not that it still isn’t, I just (hopefully) have a better handle on it.
6) The Holiness of God (R. C. Sproul) Buy it at Amazon.Com
I would shoot myself if I didn’t include something from R.C.!
5) Screwtape Letters (C.S. Lewis) Buy it at Amazon.Com
It would pretty much not be a list of authors without a least one by Lewis.
4) Basic Christianity (John R. W. Stott) Buy it at Amazon.Com
This is an excellent book covering the basics (has replaced Lewis’ Mere Christianity as my favorite gift to non-Christians ( a little less cerebral).
3) The Practice of Godliness (Jerry Bridges) Buy it at Amazon.Com
Outstanding book, I classify it as THE must read book for all Christians
2) The Pursuit of God (A. W. Tozier) Buy it at Amazon.Com
Excellent book for your devotionals.
1) The Holy Bible (English Standard Version)
No elaboration needed.
