I am asking a number of friends to answer the following question: If you could wave a magical wand which caused all Christians to read five books, what works would you pick?

Here’s a unique selection for you geared more for the common reader:
The Brothers Karamazov by Fyodor Dostoevsky
How to Read the Bible for All Its Worth by Fee and Stuart
The Problem of Pain by C. S. Lewis
Decision Making and the Will of God by Garry Friesen
Mere Christianity by C. S. Lewis
