Puritan Board Freshman
I looked around, and couldn't find any threads like this, so I'm sorry if I possibly missed a thread that already exists...and sorry also if this isn't in a correct area of the board.


I'm currently reading Temptation: Resisted & Repulsed, by John Owen.
 
I’m re-reading (after 20 years) the Reformed Doctrine of Predestination by Lorraine Boettner.
 
Currently reading Wurmbrand's "Tortured for Christ" as evening devotional reading. I wouldn't be surprised if I finish it tonight.

I'm starting Ryle's "Thoughts for Young Men" tomorrow morning as morning devotional reading (along with scripture reading and study). So I'm at a bit of a lost as to what to read next for evenings

What I'm trying to do is keep the morning readings more practical/theological, and the evening readings more down the line of History/Missions/Biographies etc. Considering that books in the latter are limited on my bookshelf...you can see my quandry. :)
 
I am currently reading The Goldsworthy Trilogy by Graeme Goldsworthy. Excellent reading and food for the tortured soul that is surrounded by a world of John Hagee type interpretors of scripture.
 
Just finished The Fatal Flaw by Jeffrey Johnson.
Going back to volume 3 book 2 True Spirituality by Francis Schaeffer.
Still working on Hilter's Pre-Emptive War: The Battle for Norway by Henrik Lunde.
 
Living for God's Glory, Beeke and A New Systematic Theology of the Christian Faith, Reymond (which a generous brother from the PB gave me this week). I have never read a systematic theology cover-to-cover (well, at least since seminary, which has been a long time), but I have started to do this with Reymond. Love it.
 
John Owen's Commentaries on Hebrews (part of a long term personal project)

Creation and Change by Doug Kelly
 
Just finished up reading some of Andrew Fuller's writings. I'm working on two fictional works, one about zombies and the other about two teenagers that are being abused by their crazy aunt.
 
My wife and I read the Ligonier Tabletalk each morning and are reading through the New Testament this year in a Longprimer KJV (in honor of the 400th anniversary of the KJV).

Read two Gordon Clark philosophy books this week and am working my way through God's Secretaries (on the history of the KJV) by Adam Nicolson.
 
reading a biogrpahy of john stott, the bible, vol. 2 in the history of princeton seminary, and finishing up Horton's ST.
 
The Bible
Packers Concise Theology (have owned it for a long time, only recently discovered what an excellent book it is)
Economics for real people by Gene Callahan
 
Wilhelmus a Brakel (1635-1711), The Christian's Reasonable Service,
Also John Witt and Eliza Ellison, Covenant Marriage in Comparative Perspectives
And if I have any time this week, John Angell James (1785-1859), The Sunday School Teacher’s Guide
 
I too am reading "Holiness" by Ryle... although I am taking a break right now... about half way through it...

I am also reading "The Hiding Place" by Corrie ten Boom - very good...

Then of course - "The Fatal Flaw of the Theology Behind Infant Baptism & Covenantal Dichotomism" by Jeffery D Johnson.

and with my son, we are reading "The Voyage of the Dawn Treader" by C.S. Lewis. :)
 
I recently finished Christianity and Liberalism by J. Gresham Machen. Right now, I'm reading How Should We Then Live? by Francis Shaeffer.
 
I'm currently reading four different books:

Michael Horton's "The Gospel-Driven Life"
John MacArthur's "Slave"
John Frame's "The Doctrine of the Word of God"
Robert A.Morey's "The Bible, Natural Theology and Natural Law: Conflict or Compromise?"

Great books!
 
The Sound-Hearted Christian- William Greenhill
Sing a New Song- Joel Beeke & Anthony Selvaggio (editors)
Lex Rex- Samuel Rutherford
 
Then of course - "The Fatal Flaw of the Theology Behind Infant Baptism & Covenantal Dichotomism" by Jeffery D Johnson.

and with my son, we are reading "The Voyage of the Dawn Treader" by C.S. Lewis.

I have a dear brother whom is reading The Fatal Flaw and has been telling me how wonderful the book is in regards to the subject. I've added it to my que and LORD willing hope to get to it. I also forgot to mention,but am going back in a little bit of my spare time between school,work, the book I'm reading to re-read the Chronicles of Narnia. In fact just finished the Silver Chair a week or so. Once this semester is over may have more reading time. I will be glad as I have a few books I already want to read: Biblical Interpretations Klein,Blomberg,Hubbard and if I can get a copy of it Spurgeon's two volume autobiography. That of course is just how I intend to start my summer. :)
