Christ for Real: How to Grow into God's Likeness by Charles Price.

I just ordered it. So why am I am recommending it? He's my favourite pastor. If I lived in Toronto, let's just say my search for a church would be over. I'm looking forward to this book very much, and I've always enjoyed his messages. He's a British pastor currently pastoring an Ontario church (although he's a globe trotter), and his message is powerful and right on.

There are a plethora of Adams books out there. Sadly, Larson and Watterson have retired. However, Larson has a complete, two volume collection of his work from 1980 until his untimely retirement in 1994. Watterson does not have such a Holy Grail of his work, but he does have some good treasuries, like The Days are Just Packed, and The Essential Calvin And Hobbes. However, there are a few original titles that tickle me. I believe that every TWebber should own and read Revenge of The Baby Sat, and The Attack of The Killer Snow Goons. Watterson is a philosopher.

There is a complete collection of Watterson now. :happydance:

All of those boks are great reading. I will go to the library and start reading some of them. Thanx

www.bethinking.org has a wealth of Audio Apologetic Resources lots of good names in the field, William Lane Craig and C.S Lewis both can be a little hard to follow for the beginner but worth studying you might need a Note book and pen and long grueling hours researching some of the work they throw at you. I would recommend for beginners Fritz Ridenour--" So What's The Difference?"

Is Truth That Hard To Swallow?

No matter how true something is, you still don't have the right to post it wherever you want, and you aren't allowed to dispute moderation decisions in the thread in which a warning is given either. If you want to go off-topic, start a new thread. And if you want to argue moderation, take it to the Psychotherapy Room. It's really not too much to ask.
