TONS of reading
A quick reading update:
1. Good Christians, Good Husbands? by Doreen Moore
This book analyzes the "marriages and ministries" of Elizabeth and George Whitefield, Sarah and Jonathan Edwards, and Molly and John Wesley. I've only read through the first section which is about the Wesleys. John Wesley was a great man of God, but he was not perfect. It is good to learn about the faithfulness and the flaws of great men of the past. By the way, this is the only book I'm reading for pleasure right now. The rest are required school reading.
2. The Autobiography of Benvenuto Cellini translated by George Bull
This is one of the five most well-known and respected (not to mention studied) autobiographies of all time. It is the story of a Florentine Italian who was born in 1500. He is a horrendously immoral man, but a brilliant and skilled goldsmith, enamelist, sculptor, and soldier. It is also great insight into the papacy of the sixteenth century.
3. To Everyone An Answer edited by Francis J. Beckwith, William Lane Craig, and J. P. Moreland
The subtitle to this book is, A Case for the Christian Worldview. It is an apologetic book written in a series of essays to honor Norman L. Geisler, a world-renowned apologist. The book is very good so far, and shows why the Christian worldview is the only true framework to start from.
4. Hebrews by unknown
In my daily devotions I am slogging my way through the majestic treatise of New Testament. I am using John MacArthur's commentary on the book, as well as Believer's Bible Commentary by William MacDonald to help elucidate the harder passages of the epistle.
God bless you as you strive to know him more!
