It may seem a little early to start thinking about best book lists for this year, but author and reader Tony Reinke (Lit! A Christian Guide to Reading Books) has released a list of books he considers to be “contenders” for 2016.
This also makes a good list for our readers to browse who may be looking for something good to read now that summer is done and cool/cold weather and dark nights have arrived.
There is a wide variety of titles to look over here – truly something for every Christian, so visit the link below to do so. And perhaps you have one or two you wish to add, in answer to his question.
Let me add my own question: what would you read next if you could pick one from this list?
Here’s Reinke’s brief note and then a few books from his list.
It’s time to finalize my preliminary list of books to consider for best of 2016. Once again, this is going to be a tough decision. The list, as I have it so far, is below. So what books have I missed?
- Michael Allen and Scott Swain (editors), Christian Dogmatics: Reformed Theology for the Church Catholic (Baker)
- Gerald Bray, The Church: A Theological and Historical Account (Baker)
- Heidi Campbell and Stephen Garner, Networked Theology: Negotiating Faith in Digital Culture (Baker)
- Don Carson (editor), The Enduring Authority of the Christian Scriptures (Eerdmans)
- Tim Challies, Do More Better: A Practical Guide to Productivity (Challies)
- Tim Challies and Josh Byers, Visual Theology: Seeing and Understanding the Truth About God (Zondervan)
