I had my future planned as a Baptist minister until a few weeks ago. I am a reader, but I fear I read more widely instead of deeply (I know a little bit about a lot). Now that I have switched views on baptism and plan to go to RTS Jackson, what would you all recommend me read to prepare me for their course of study?
I will let you know what major works I have read in these fields (this list is not exhaustive and it will come from a baptistic past):
Systematic Theology: Grudem, Erickson, and 80% of Calvin
Church History: Williston Walker, Bruce Shelley, Justo Gonzalez, Mark Noll
Apologetics: Bahnsen, some of Frame, Moreland and Craig
Philosophy: I really haven't read an intro to philosophy text, but I have read some of Kierkegaard and a lot of Augustine.
There is a lot more that I Could have listed, but I don't won't to bore you. I am open to suggestions
I do know Greek and will know Latin and German before I graduate college (I will be a senior in college). I am not boasting on what I have read; I feel that I am way behind in reading and intellect.
Regards
