Recommended Christrian Books

Finally! May apologies friends for the delay in getting this list out to you. I have had many requests for what books I recommend so here it is. Certainly I will forget some, but here are some great books to have in your home to encourage you and your family. This list is obviously in addition to the Book of Books, the Word of God!



STUDY MATERIALS

1. Websters 1828-A must for definitions. In my opinion, all other dictionaries combined do not match this one! Available in CD format, I recommend the Hardcopy, available for about $60.

2. Strongs Concordance-I do not utilize the definitions but use this for finding specific scriptures.

3. Commentaries-I am not a fan of any modern commentaries, and even older ones from good men need to be viewed as commentaries only, NOT scripture! saying that any commentaries by Spurgeon, Wesley, Luther, Matthew Henry etc. can be helpful.

4. Kingdom of the Cults by Walter Martin

5. Kingdom of the Occult by Walter Martin

6. Naves Topical Concordance-Though I do not agree with every reference under some topics this is a helpful book.

7. AIG (Answers in Genesis)-Though these materials are not King James, AIG puts out some great materials(books, audio, DVD's etc) that are excellent regarding the creation/evolution debate.

8. Kent Hovind-Brother Kents materials are King James, and again are excellent resources.
