The Believer’s Study Bible

I was given a nice leather edition of this new Study Bible by a friend who recommends it.  I have been doing my Old Testament reading from it this year.  One of the advantages to the newer Study Bibles is the capability to reproduce graphic designs within the footnotes, as well as graphs and charts […]

The Perfect Will Of God

Two older devotional books that I found to be delightful were G. Christian Weiss’ The Perfect Will Of God and Vance Havner’s Rest Awhile. Weiss’ treatment of God’s will is unencumbered by today’s emotional, psychical style of writing on this subject.  Don’t expect too little from this old saint. He says “Unholy people are in […]

Rest Awhile

Two older devotional books that I found to be delightful were G. Christian Weiss’ The Perfect Will Of God and Vance Havner’s Rest Awhile. Weiss’ treatment of God’s will is unencumbered by today’s emotional, psychical style of writing on this subject.  Don’t expect too little from this old saint. He says “Unholy people are in no position to know […]

Living by the Book

I was given this 1991 book and could tell immediately that it would be a profitable guide for Christian men and women to learn to read and study their Bibles.   Its three-fold outline of Observation, Interpretation, Application, provides a solid approach (ie grammatical-historical) to rightly dividing the Word.  It deals gently with the biblical languages […]

The Knowledge Of The Holy

Three Books By A. W. Tozer I don’t know what you may like to read while you’re on a vacation.  I think reading nothing at all may be the best.  But this time I took three familiar Tozer books with me in hopes that I would be uplifted and drawn back into focus in my […]

The Pursuit Of God

Pensees

Some months ago I set out to read this book a little at a time.  I had read quotes from Pascal all my life but never had read the Pensees myself.  It makes for good reading when you have short periods of time because most of the book is a compilation of his notes and […]

The Masculine Journey

I don’t often enjoy reading ‘‘How to figure yourself out’’ books but this was an exception. Maybe it was because it is a word study of the six Hebrew words for ‘‘man.’’ Hicks relates each word to a significant stage in every man’s life, not by building a lexical definition, but by showing how each […]
