That, I think, was a good thing for me.
After working through Owen, like you said, its all downhill from there (in a tough sort of way).
But then you find Edward Reynolds, Stephen Charnock, David Clarkson, Richard Sibbs, Thomas Manton, William Jenkyn, and the high octance goes back up again!
If one can read through and follow Owen, there is no doubt he preps you for everything else.
I'm glad I picked that one up first though.
Can you imagine all the other books that were in a college bookstore that I COULD have picked up? I mean, it was an Arminian, charismatic, Pentecostal bookstore. And yes, they had Owen. Go figure!
