All of that at ONCE?? Eeek, every since I developed this theology forum addicti.... err, hobby, I have had precious little reading time.

I am currently reading Kenneth Gentry's "Perilious Times: A Study in Eschatology Evil" and listening to Dan Trotter's preterism tape series. Now no one can say that I am not serious about my obsessions.

It's all piece meal DD

Start with Romans, cos I need that; plus other ministry requirements.

Then the BT/Esch, a chapter a day hopefully

Then the Reformed, if there is time

Then the rest is for sudden spare time, such as Sunday evening after church, or even better, for instsance, the end of march when I am not preaching for two weeks - Oh goody, reading time!!

[Dee Dee Warren]

I do read a lot of magazines and other small material. I get a lot of material from Answers in Genesis and the Institute for Creation Research.

Magazines I get reguarly are The Christian Research Journal, Biblical Worldview, and Credenda Agenda.

[brother vinny]

I'm reading American Gods, by Neil Gaiman. I also have several volumes of Gaiman's Sandman graphic novels checked out.

I'm also reading The Good Book, by Peter J. Gomes, and The History of God, by Karen Armstrong.

[Dee Dee Warren]

There is a great critique of Armstrong's work in the Christian Research Journal. I could let you know the issue number if you like... I believe they are all online.

[Patroclus]

I am reading Leviathan by Thomas Hobbes.

The Silmarillion by J.R.R. Tolkien.

The Tempest by William Shakespeare.

Don Quixote by Miguel Cervantes

[bar Jonah]

Currently, I am reading (in no particular order of importance):

The Invisible Man, by H.G. Wells

Leave Your Self Alone, by Eugenia Price

How We Got Our Bible, by W.H. Griffith Thomas

Signs of Intelligence: understanding intelligent design, edited by William A. Dembski and James M. Kushiner, with contributions by many

[Ishmael]

I read Escape from Reason today and I am going to read The Christian Manafesto tomorrow.

Both of these were written by Francis Schaeffer but one was written in 1968 and the other in 1981. So the perspective is quite different but the message is truer in 2003 than in either decade... too bad FS is not here to see that he was (among many other things) a prophet.

[GrayPilgrim]

I love The Christian Manifesto I was in High School the last time I read Escape from Reason. Volume IV of his complete works is still my favorite though.
