100+ Book Recommendations for Christians

Recommended Books for Christians
After being asked repeatedly for book recommendations on assorted topics, I decided to create a one-stop-shop list of recommended books for Christians. Many of these books have shaped my faith and literally changed my life. I pray that these recommendations, like this blog, would deepen your grasp of Scripture and your love for the God of the Scriptures.
A few thoughts on this non-exhaustive list:
  1. Books are generally accessible for all. More advanced books will be marked accordingly.
  2. I share links to free books and resources whenever possible.
  3. My top picks are marked with a *.
  4. I share many affiliate links, meaning I earn a few cents on the dollar of purchases at no extra cost to you. (This helps me cover blogging expenses.)
If you have books that you would add, let me know on Facebook or Twitter.

  Is the Faith and Work Message an Attempt to Earn Our Own Salvation? Hugh Whelchel February 9, 2015 TWITTER   FACEBOOK   LINKEDIN   EMAIL   SUBSCRIBE   PRINT Recently I was speaking on faith and work at a conference and someone asked, “Aren’t you just talking about works righteousness?”   I assured them I wasn’t, but I can see how it could’ve sounded that way. I’m not the only one running into this problem. Several years ago Mark Roberts at  The High Calling  interviewed N. T. Wright, and  Wright  talked  about this works righteousness misunderstanding that is often voiced about the importance of our work: What you do in the present matters. It’s hard for Protestants to hear that without thinking, “Oh, dear, this is good works again.” That’s a scare tactic.
