Why doesn't ole' Backwoods just get one of those spinnie-round-the-wheel-thingamajigs?
Thata ways, you could hold your own contest jest about any ole' time, all private-like, for yer own emusement.



Being cereal for a moment, I voted for Alexander's Thoughts on Religious Experience. A.A. Hodge's Commentary seems less something to read and more something to reference as needed.

I love Alexander's book. It is great. Martin Bucer's work would be a close second if I could vote twice.

I voted for Bucer. It is an excellent book from one of the most overlooked influential men of the reformation.
