Lately I've been bringing a small black leather copy of the Book of Common Prayer (1959/62 Canadian edition, a Cambridge University Press/Anglican Book Centre co-production) with me pretty much everywhere I go. It's a great book to dip into on the train, subway, while waiting in line for things. Scripture readings galore (the BCP is something like 80% Scripture), including the Psalter; the ancient Creeds; the Articles of Religion; prayers...

Aside from this, I'm reading:

Vol. 1 of William Cunningham's Historical Theology (Banner of Truth Trust)

&

The University of Toronto: A History by Martin Friedland (University of Toronto Press, 2002) -- a graduation gift to myself.
 
I have been reading a lot of Spurgeon and I am currently reading....

I am currently reading "All of Grace" by Charles H. Spurgeon

I like Spurgeon and his views...and I believe one of the best ways to understand Protestantism is to read the great writers of the past and I admire Spurgeon very much..I also want to learn more about Justification and predestination..I also concur completely with his views on Roman catholicism and the papacy and the pope....I admire his very vocal outspoken views of the Romanists...and the Roman catholic church.

"If I were a Roman Catholic, I should turn a heretic, in sheer desperation, because I would rather go to heaven than go to purgatory."
- Charles Spurgeon

I'm reading again in The Quest for Godliness by J.I. Packer about the Puritans and their influence. It is a great book and I benefit each time I read it.

What are your thoughts on the Metzger? I need to read that for class in a month or so.

Personally I find him to be very precise in his writing, yet he doesn't write in such a way that you would need previous education in New Testament studies to understand what he is saying. I think he is a very good author, and a very good scholar.
