WHY A READING LIST?
An informed, equipped, listener receives a message better than someone who comes into a discussion cold and unprepared.
Because of this, I have prepared a list of a few books that a person might consider reading through in addition to their Bible reading to help supplement their knowledge of the sermon series we are currently investigating.
This list does not necessarily involve an endorsement of the content of the books involved, only that reading them will help the member be more prepared and able to dig deeper into the biblical texts being considered. While I will attempt to avoid books that I find lacking in either a biblical worldview or in useful insights for the average reader, I am expecting members be able to use discernment as to what part of these books they should accept and what they should reject.
I have placed the link to their page on Amazon so that you can investigate each book a little bit more.
