Recommended Reading
"Obviously the best book to spend time in is the Bible. It's the only book in the world written by God. We encourage you to study the Bible and apply it's principles for the rest of your life. It is the standard by which all truth claims should be judged.
But it is also beneficial to listen to the body of Christ. So we encourage you to read good Christian books. Often I have found my eyes opened to new thoughts by reading Christian authors as they use the gift God has given them. I submit the following list as books that you may find helpful in your spiritual journey."
