A short list of recommended Christian books
Here is a short list of some of the books I've read over the past 24 yrs, since being regenerated by the saving power of God's marvelous grace.
Some are heavy reading, some are easy reading. Some will bring you to tears, others will bring you to your knees in prayer. Some books will convict, others will educate, and some are great for family devotions. But, all will be a blessing to the sincere child of God looking for truth.
My guess is that the largest Christian bookstore in any town in the US will likely not have any more than 2 or 3 of these books on their shelf. This is the sad state of the so-called Christian bookstore.
Although, this is nowhere near an exhaustive list, it's a good place to start your own personal Christian library.
