Calvinist Cowboy
Puritan Board Junior
If I had to pick only 10 books to read for the rest of my life, I would choose:
1) The Pleasures of God - John Piper
2) Confessions & City of God in one volume - Augustine
3) Religious Affections - Jonathan Edwards
4) The Freedom of the Will - Jonathan Edwards
5) Institutes of Christian Religion - John Calvin
6) Systematic Theology - Louis Berkhof
7) Trinity Hymnal (contains both hymns and Westminster Confession & Shorter Catechism) *Music to soothe the savage breast*
8) Complete Works of Shakespeare in one volume
9) The Pilgrim's Progress - John Bunyan
10) In His Steps (just kidding!) I'm torn among Death of Death (Owen), Imitation of Christ (Kempis), and The Marrow of Theology (Ames).
After thinking about it, I would replace 10 with Matthew Henry's Commentary on the Whole Bible in one volume.
I can see now why it is so difficult to pick a limited number of books and exclude the rest!
