Which book to buy?

Well, I got a gift certificate from Barnes and Noble for Christmas. $15. Can't decide on a book to buy. Any Suggestions? Used or out of print or new, as long as I can find it on their site. Thanks

And here's mine;Waiting on God by Andrew MurrayB&N Price:\t$6.99that's only half your certificate too.In Christ,Ron

Hello IA Holmes Ahh the gift of books is such a wonderful thing and there are so many great books out there. It's always good to go with the clasics most of the time you can never go wrong there. I am reading an interesting book right now by a fellow by the name of Devern Fromke(I beleive he has a couple of sermons on this site) which is called The Ultimate Intention. I am on chapter 5 right now and so far so good. also if you go to rarechristianbooks.com you can see some of the out of print and or hard to get older christian books out there, and I know this is going to make you hapy greg, you can even get a list of Leonard Ravenhills recommended reads:) hope this helps Andy out

Mr Fromke's book Unto Full Stature is also excellent but unfortunately his books can't be had at B&N. :-( In Christ,Ron

Why Revival Tarries By Leonard Ravenhill was a huge inpact on me. All of Leonard Ravenhill's books are impacting though.. Sodom had no Bible.. there are many others..

I agree Ravenhill is very good, Revival Prayers is an excellent book. I'm working my way through the Power of Prayer by R.A. Torrey. Aruthur Pink is a good one also. Stay with the classics! And be careful, there is alot of bad stuff out there, I run a bookstore.

Oswald Chambers... anything. 'Abandoned to God' comes in real close to your price range.They have a real good price on the Book/CD combo (Complete Works) if you want to chip in a few bucks...Anything Tozer...Depending on where 'your heads at'...Ravi Zacharias (Can Man Live Without God)Francis Schaeffer (The God Who Is There)Brother Andrew (Gods Smuggler) Outstanding!"Deeper Experiences of Famous Christians" by James Gilchrist Lawson (Bunyon, Wesley, Whitefield, Muller, moody.....)T. Austin SparksJust throwing them out there...

With Christ in the School of Prayer By Andrew MurrayThis will be the best choice to make.

Hello,Praise the Lord. I would strongly suggest the following books which will edify you in the walk with the Lord.1) Pilgrim's progress by John Bunyan2) Saints Everlasting Rest by Richard Baxter or3) Chrisitian Disciplines by Oswald ChambersShankar

Also Christians in full armor by William Gurnal is a very key book. what a great discusion. Anybody know of any good church history books? maybe that includes all of church history and not just the Catholic and Protestant side, but offer some insight into the Greek Orthodox church as well. Andy

There are a lot of great literary works to choose from out there! As far as church history goes there is a fellow named phillip Schaf that has an 8 volume set that runs from the church of Acts to the Reformation. Also Tyndale publishing put out a 1 yr. devotional book that covers the past 2,000 years by pulling out intresting facts and stories and placing them in a 1 page per day format. Let me also recomment Alfred Ediershiem. He wrote "Life and Times of Jesus the Messiah" a wonderful book on just that, and "The Temple" another great book. I could spend all day suggesting great books--but don't ever let books override THE book. :)

I love anything written by Max Lucado. :-)

Does anybody like the Heavenly Man ? or how about some old book like A Call to United, Extraordinary Prayer...: For the Revival of Religion and the Advancement of Christ's Kingdom , this book is by jonathan edwards it title is a long title so they decreased it too 256 words
