What’s on your to-read pile?

7 thoughts on “What’s on your to-read pile?”

  1. Aaron — I’m curious to know whether or not you have any particular method for selecting the books that you’ll read. I appreciated the advice by Tone Reinke to form a plan for your reading, because I find that if I don’t, I’ll read exclusively “new” books. (This is mainly because the blogs I follow tend to review new, not old, books.) But I heartily believe in the C.S. Lewis advice to avoid chronological snobbery. Any particular advice here?

    1. C.S. Lewis’ explicit advise on reading was to not allow yourself another new book until you read an old one. And if you do not have the time for both, read the old.

  2. Girgis, Anderson, and George, “What is Marriage? Man and Woman: A Defense”
    David Platt, “Follow Me”
    Jonathan Pennington, “Reading the Gospels Wisely”
    Gregory Thornbury, “Recovering Classic Evangelicalism: Applying the Wisdom and Vision of Carl F. H. Henry”

  3. The Bruised Reed – Sibbes

    The Church – Dever

    Tough Topics – Storms

    Church Planter – Patrick

    Center Church – Keller

    Jesus and Divorce – Wenham/Heth

    Divorce and Remarriage in the Bible – Instone-Brewer

    No worries…I’m helping my church reexamine it’s stance on M, D & R (Marriage, Divorce, and Remarriage).
