Personal OPINION on certain recently-read books
REALLY good books:
Hermeneutics: An Introduction (Anthony Thiselton)
Truth Decay (Douglas Groothuis)
How Wide the Divide? (Craig Blomberg and Stephen Robinson)
The Pastor as Scholar and the Scholar as Pastor (John Piper and D.A. Carson)
Burned Over: The Religious Upheaval that Shaped America (Jack Kelly)
The Marathoners (Hal Higdon)
The UltraMarathon Man (Dean Karnazes)
Books that had some positives, but also some negatives:
Bridging the Divide (Robert Millet and Gregory Johnson)
Mormon Officials and Christian Scholars Compare Doctrines (John Ankerberg)
Not great books, but not bad:
The Mormon Defenders (James Patrick Holding)
Mormonism: The Story of a New Religious Tradition (Jan Shipps)
Not-so-good books:
Are Mormons Christians? (Stephen Robinson)
The Great Apostasy (James Talmage)
