It’s been a while since I’ve posted what I’m currently reading. Sometimes people ask me, so I thought this would be a nice post.
I use the English Standard Version in both devotional and public ministry:
In my study of the Gospel of Mark, I regularly read:
J.C. Ryle’s Commentary (Crossway Classic)
David Garland’s Commentary (NIVAC)
R.T. France’s Commentary (NIGTC)
James Brooks’ Commentary (NAC)
For HomeWord, next Friday, February 8th, I’m reading:
C.J. Mahaney, Sex, Romance and The Glory of God
Mark Dever’s Chapter on the Song of Songs in The Message of the OT
Tom Gledhill’s Commentary on the Song of Songs
G. Lloyd Carr’s Commentary on the Song of Solomon
My Wednesday night class is reading D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones’ Studies in the Sermon on the Mount.
At home, after devotions I usually read:
Bryan Chapell’s Christ Centered Preaching
For fun, I’m reading an excellent biography of Vince Lombardi entitled, When Pride Still Mattered by David Maraniss
I also have some books ready to tackle next:
D.A. Carson, Worship by the Book,
Sinclair Ferguson’s latest In Christ Alone,
Charles Bridges, The Christian Ministry,
James McPherson, Hallowed Ground: A Walk at Gettysburg,
and Jay Winik’s April 1865: The Month That Saved America
These books represent a huge part of what I’m normally up to.
