Whether anyone actually reads this stuff anymore is a question well worth asking if you want to at least break even on your bookstore. For me, however, these seem to be books worth reading, then reading again and again. There are a lot like that, huh!

Anyway, I know that you will want to have several good reformed theological works. Just don't completely dismiss the idea of including some literature in there. Crime and Punishment, for example, seems to me a novel well worth reading in a Sunday School setting.

Take it for what it's worth.
Nice post--- and it is duly noted. Thanks again for your input. If I had my 'druthers, I'd choose YOUR selection (or something extremely close) for my GENERAL library-- Though I would include an absolutely PHENOMENAL book currently on the NYT Best Seller list-- NOT told from the Christian perspective, so much as the Judeo-Christian-to-Muslim DEMOGRAPHIC struggle (read:war) that is currently being waged. **NOTE TO ALL: PLEASE read this book, and we can discuss it...

As for my THEOLOGICAL library, the other posts are more suitable for my directed purpose (a church bookstore)...

Again, thanks!
