The Christian Classics Ethereal Library (CCEL) seeks to build up the church by making classic Christian literature widely available and promoting its use for edification and study by interested Christians, seekers and scholars. - http://www.ccel.org/ ** Please note, I offer no guarantees on the working order of these shared resources and links! 4 CCEL – Shortlist of recommended reading: St. Augustine The Confessions of St. Augustine -- The most popular work of the man who more than any other shaped western civilization. The first 10 chapters constitute a spiritual autobiography and some spiritual and philosophical reflections; the last three chapters are a reflection on the creation story of Genesis 1. John Bunyan Pilgrim's Progress -- A spiritual allegory. Of books written in English, one of the all-time most popular. Audio available G. K. Chesterton Orthodoxy -- Chesterton's writing reminds me of C.S. Lewis, but a little more colorful, a little more quirky. This book is an apology for the Christian world-view. Jonathan Edwards Religious Affections -- "What is the nature of true religion? . . . [What are] the distinguishing notes of that virtue and holiness that is acceptable in the sight of God?" In this classic work by America's greatest theologian and philosopher, Edwards considers the nature of revival and the genuine work of the Holy Spirit. Don't read this book if you want to keep worshipping your idols. George Fox Autobiography of George Fox -- This is a fascinating journal of the exploits of the founder of the Society of Friends (Quakers). It is also very illuminating about the political and religious state of seventeenth century England -- for example, Fox lives through the commonwealth period, meets Cromwell, and prophesies his downfall after he treats Quakers badly. Audio available St. Ignatius of Loyola The Spiritual Exercises Spiritual exercises arranged into 4 weeks, by the founder of the Jesuits. Audio available St. John of the Cross Ascent of Mount Carmel Dark Night of the Soul -- The writings of St. John of the Cross are unsurpassed for mystical theology. The "dark night" is a must-read for anyone seriously concerned about growing spiritually. Thomas à Kempis The Imitation of Christ -- This book is said to have been published in more editions than any other, apart from the Bible, with 6000 appearing by the turn of this century. This little devotional book is simply written but immensely moving. Highly recommended.Audio available William Law A Serious Call to a Devout and Holy Life -- This is one of two or three books that greatly influenced the young J. Wesley. Audio available Brother Lawrence The Practice of the Presence of God -- In this little collection of letters and reflections, Brother Lawrence encourages us to be continually in God's presence.

This call led her to a life in Christian community where she could dedicate herself completely to working towards God’s coming kingdom of justice and love.

Faithful Women and Their Extraordinary God Modern Christian women need an introduction to the intelligent, capable, godly women of the past. In this new book, Noel Piper uses excerpts from letters and journals to add rich detail to the amazing stories of five ordinary women who trusted in their extraordinary God as he led them to do great things for his kingdom. http://www.desiringgod.org/resource-library/online-books/faithful-women-and-their-extraordinary-god Finally Alive What does the Bible teach about the miracle of rebirth? In this new book, John Piper explores Jesus' peculiar command, "You must be born again." Spiritual rebirth is precious and crucial. When Jesus said, “You must be born again,” he wasn't simply sharing interesting information; he was directing us toward eternal life. It is essential to know what God intends when he uses this language of being born again, so that we may experience new birth and help others do the same.

This collection of poems completes that book. What seemed to be missing there was the taste of my affections for Noël.” “In fact, the point of that book was that covenant-keeping, not the affections of being 'in love', is the main point of marriage. But I also emphasized that tough-minded covenant-keeping is the best soil for the long-term flourishing of tender affections. Therefore, it seemed helpful that I give some tastes of what those affections were like over the last 42 years.” http://www.desiringgod.org/resource-library/online-books/velvet-steel Find some great free Christian children’s books here: http://www.talesofcastles.com/free-bookdownloads.htm And an assortment of discipleship resources here: http://www.coregroups.org/home.html Finally, you may find this source helpful: 2632 Christian ebooks (see below) in downloadable zip files; Christian ebooks are from many great known and unknown spiritual writers, prophets, holy men and women, intercessors, canonized saints, missionaries, mystics, evangelists, miracle workers, contemplatives, learned divines, theologians, defenders of the faith, apologists, early church fathers, apostles, prayer warriors, historians, revivalists, preachers, pastors, Sunday School teachers, seminary professors, reformers, Bible teachers, and church doctors and church documents flowing from the many streams of Christendom.
