books12

Let me explain the insanity going on here. I am going to read a lot this summer. I have decided to read a heapload of books this summer. I’ve already outlined the first few (which is a lot), and have read the first one on my list.

They are:

  1. Desiring GodJohn Piper
  2. Letters to Doubting Thomas - C. Stephen Layman
  3. Mere Christianity - C.S. Lewis
  4. The Screwtape LettersC.S. Lewis
  5. The Abolition of Man - C.S. Lewis
  6. The Great Divorce - C.S. Lewis
  7. The Problem of Pain - C.S. Lewis
  8. Miracles - C.S. Lewis
  9. A Grief Observed - C.S. Lewis
  10. The SilmarillionJ.R.R. Tolkien

So, if anyone has any other suggestions, I’m open. Right now I’m about a quarter through the great philosophical wanderer Letters to Doubting Thomas, an understandable yet scholarly read. Next I will tackle the C.S. Lewis Signature Classics, long overdue. After that will most likely be the Silmarillion, a book I’ve always wanted to read.

Any other ideas? I will be giving you updates as I continue down the road. I’m open to anything good, but I prefer theology, philosophy, and adventure. I hate crap books.
