We wanted to have an area where we could provide resources we recommend. There is certainly no shortage of things labeled “Christian”, so we are not looking to address all of these things. This is simply an attempt to suggest resources we feel will be beneficial for your growth in the Lord.
As Christians we are people of The Book. We are to be in the
Scriptures and to be people that love the written
word, since this is the way God chose to
reveal Himself to men.
Out of a love for the Word of God often flows
a love for literature that strengthens our love
for the Word and the God of the Bible. God
has given us 2000 years of post-resurrection
literature that stands as a testimony of His love
and faithfulness to His bride. When asked
about what Christians should be reading,
Charles Spurgeon replied:
“As the apostle says to Timothy, so also he
says to every-one, 'Give yourself to reading.' ...
He who will not use the thoughts of other men's
brains proves that he has no brains of his own...
You need to read. Renounce as much as you
will all light literature, but study as much as
possible sound theological works, especially the
Puritanic writers, and expositions of the Bible...
the best way for you to spend your leisure is to be
either reading or praying."
