LIBRARY OF RECCOMENDATIONS

We believe the Bible is the supreme source of truth for Christian beliefs and living. The Bible is directly and supernaturally inspired by God, thus infallible in every sense. The Bible, above all, is to be the rule of faith and life. It is completely sufficient for all of our needs in the areas of truth. However, for those seeking additional literature,

here you will find a library of well-read books that are all biblically rich and rooted in the truth of God's Word.

"KNOWING GOD" Author: J. I. Packer

In the book, Packer explores the character of God as revealed in the Bible and what he believes are the correct Christian responses to it, with chapters on such topics as God's love, grace, majesty and wrath.

"MERE CHRISTIANITY" Author: C.S. Lewis

Lewis aims to prove to the sensible skeptic that God does exist and that He sent His son Jesus Christ to redeem the world. The book begins with a logical proof for the Christian God and then transitions into a discussion of the common ground upon which all of those of the Christian faith stand together.

The Jesus Storybook Bible

The Jesus Storybook Bible invites children to discover for themselves the one who is at the center of God’s great rescue story — and at the center of their story, too.

The Reformation Study Bible

The Reformation Study Bible "aims to carry on the legacy of the Geneva Bible in shining forth the light of biblical Christianity, which was recovered in the Reformation." As of late 2021, all editions of the Reformation Study Bible feature the Bible text of the English Standard Version (ESV).

"THE MEANING OF MARRIAGE" Author: Starr Meade

The Meaning of Marriage (2011) is a meditation on marriage in an age of skyrocketing divorce rates and growing skepticism that a life of monogamy can deliver true happiness.

"CHOSEN BY GOD" Author: R.C. Sproul

Sproul shows that the doctrine of predestination doesn't create a whimsical or spiteful picture of God, but paints the portrait of a loving God who provides redemption for radically corrupt humans. There is mystery in God's ways, but not contradiction.

"SAVING GRACE" Author: C. John Miller

This devotional divevs in to the fact that the gospel changes how we live each day. That’s the premise of Saving Grace and the legacy of Jack Miller’s ministry. Founder of Serge and the New Life Presbyterian network of churches, Miller believed that Christians need to hear the gospel by faith every day, and he preached what he believed.

"TRAINING HEARTS, TEACHING MINDS " Author: Starr Meade

This book of daily readings aids memorization by devoting six days and meditations to each question. It explains the catechism in simple language, includes key Scripture readings, and takes just a few moments each day, allowing time for discussion and review.
