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 is the next installment.
Colby Kinser is a dear friend and the pastor of Grace Fellowship Church in Overland Park, Kansas. Here are Colby’s selections:
Bonhoeffer’s “The Cost of Discipleship”
Frost’s “Exiles”
“Center Church” or “Prodigal God” by Keller (serving different purposes)
“The Forgotten God” by Chan
A good survey book of OT and NT, or a good treatment of the Bible as story
All things Dallas Willard
Hey David,
I interviewed Willard twice when doing radio and he graciously endorsed my first book.
My two favorites of his are Spirit of the Disciplines and Divine Conspiracy. How about you?
