I am currently re-reading The Scarlet Letter as I prepare to teach an American literature course next year in a homeschool co-op. One thing that is striking me this time around is the way Hawthorne portrays Puritans and Puritanism (the last/first time I read TSL, I was 13, so I naturally missed...

Hi, friends, Just a heads up that AUDIBLE has many excellent books on sale for as low as around $2, give or take. I've picked up many by the likes of Sproul, Lawson, Ferguson, Tozer, Pink, John Frame, Lorraine Boettner, Voddie Baucham, and more. This is a huge benefit compared with the cost of...

I've been trying to put together a list of books (outside of Scripture) that I want to ensure I return to multiple times throughout life, so as to really absorb their ideas. Reading broadly is great; but it seems to me that reading a few really good books repeatedly, so as to fully absorb their...

Is there a reputable top 25/50/100 best books of all time list that is from a primarily reformed perspective? I’m done buying so many books and never being able to read them all. I just want to start over with a personal library of 50 or so must-read books and then slowly build from there as I...

Good morning! Does anyone have any suggestions on books, whether old or new, discussing growth in meekness and gentleness? Or perhaps even all of the fruit of the Spirit? I'm not sure if I recall any Puritan works. I'd be interesting in checking out whatever you can recommend. Preferably...

I was recommended a book called Solomon Says by Mark Horne. He seems solid. After looking at the publication date, I noticed it was this year. Then it dawned on me that I only read books by dead guys. Do any of you have any authors that you would recommend right alongside the Puritans but that...

I have begun reading Mortimer Adler's and Charles Van Doren's How to Read a Book. I am only about 12% in, and I have already found it so useful. They have given some very practical tips to help avoid things like fatigue, a wandering mind, and "fixation" while reading. One example was to use a...

I've dipped into both Berkof's and Hodge's Systematic Theologies. I have both in my library. Are there other good authors one should consult like Geerhardus Vos's Reformed Dogmatics. Does he treat Lutheranism in those books. Or besides Systematic Theologies what should one read to get a good...

Greetings, I would like to recommend a little gem of a book titled "The Genius of Puritanism" by Peter Lewis. I received it a few days ago and have found it to be hard to put down. It was a book order topper I added to get free shipping from RHB and boy was it money ($5) well spent. Here are...

Trash? Not trash?

My mother bought this book for me nearly 10 years ago and sent it to me while I was living in Portland, Oregon. It was a new release back then. I was 22 worked at PDX airport, was a relatively new Christian, and had been married to my first wife for only a few years. I only read through half of...

Good day, brethren. My wife and I are going on our annual San Juan Mountains camping trip. I will have nine days to submerse my self in beautiful scenery and books away from work and the demands of life. We go camping a good bit and it drives my wife crazy how long it takes me to pick books for...

Brethren, good day. I am curious to hear your methods of approaching studying. When reading theological works, do you take notes and then review them? Do you underline, mark, or highlight passages as you read through it, and then review them? I am personally a note taker. I take a plethora of...

How many of you are reading more than one book at a time? Or if you have done it in the past - does it work for you? Can you keep track of the line of thought in both? Any advice?

Hello, I am wanting to purchase a set of Calvin's commentaries. I have a few individual volumes already, and so need to choose between these 2 sets, each of which I already have a few volumes: *Eerdmans 1965 (Calvin's New Testament Commentaries) *Eerdmans (no year? blue plain binding)...

Hello, I would like to know what are some of the greatest works of the 20th and 21st centuries that refutes the main Roman Catholic dogmas (such as church government and the Pope's office, worshipping and praying to the saints, etc.). Thank you

Presently myself and a friend of mine are translating J.C ryle expository thoughts on Gospel of John in our language. We completed 10 chapters. I am thinking about Printing because it is easy to read and to understand. Many pastors from villages are searching for books related to...

Hello everyone, Here is my situation: My parents are Roman Catholic. Even though I am an adult, I still live at home. When my parents attend mass, I attend a Reformed church. I have a younger sister who goes with them, but I have been trying to witness to her for a while and really, see to it...

I'm selling my complete 63-volume set of Spurgeon's sermons. The set is in excellent condition (minimal markings, tight bindings) and does NOT have the original dust jackets. It is the black covered edition printed by Pilgrim Publications. This would make a beautiful and weighty addition to any...

For someone who would like to study amillennialism in more detail, what book(s) would you recommend? I know that Sam Storms has a new book out: Kingdom Come: The Amillennial Alternative. There is also A Case for Amillennialism by Kim Riddlebarger. How do these compare? Are there better books?

I would like to start reading short books/stories to my kids that do not have pictures (or limited pictures). In a media saturated, consumer culture, I'd like to help my kids learn to be creative (in the literal sense of the word), processing and imagining things in their mind instead of merely...
