Larry, what did you think about it? I really liked it - helpful to me personally and to remind others of the Gospel.<br /><br />TSAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-617484729830304927.post-28903874281141991152010-03-18T17:26:48.623-04:002010-03-18T17:26:48.623-04:00The Letters of Samuel Rutherford
Here's the a...The Letters of Samuel Rutherford<br /><br />Here's the amazon description: The seventeenth-century devotional letters of Samuel Rutherford, most of which were written during imprisonment for the sake of the Gospel. <br /><br />Reading this along with McCheyne's Letters is certainly humbling. I'd love to talk to you about both books sometime.<br /><br />Larry, both of the books you mentioned sound great, as does Jim's book. Jim, I have a great book for you to read after Dawkins. It's a response to the new atheists called Who Made God? by Edgar Andrews, a well respected scientist. I'm about finished with it. <br /><br />WillWillnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-617484729830304927.post-50725524397285607552010-03-18T15:51:00.931-04:002010-03-18T15:51:00.931-04:00(Yes, as usual, reading more than one book...I kee...(Yes, as usual, reading more than one book...I keep trying to break this habit.....)<br /><br />"Knowing God" by J.I. Packer. A classic from the 70's<br /><br />"The Greatest Show on Earth -- The Evidence for Evolution" -- Richard Dawkins. I figure if I'm rejecting the evolutionary theory, I'd best know the strongest argument FOR it from its foremost advocate. Fascinating book.<br /><br />And I'm about to begin book 2 in a fictional series by Patrick O'Brian, called "Post Commander", a historical piece of nautical fiction set in Napoleonic times. (there are 20 volumes in total -- at my reading rate, that will take me about 10 years!)<br /><br />Jim WAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
