Karen's Reading Project
I came across an interesting bibliography a couple of years ago while at a library book sale, entitled "Lifetime Reading Plan." It intrigued me, so I snapped it up, and it basically contains a list of the "greatest works" written that are available in the English language. I also borrowed "Great Books of the Christian Tradition" from our library, and used both lists to come up with the list below.
I am planning on attacking this list (one book at a time!), partly for fun and personal enrichment, but partly to prepare myself as a teacher to teach the children how to defend the truth of what they believe. It is important to know what foolishness we are up against in the world, so I am reading the great books containing truth as well as those containing the folly of man.
Here's a quote from the "Lifetime Reading Plan" that sums up where I'm coming from . . . "The Bible of course is more important than any book on the list, influencing constantly and deeply the lives of all Westerners, including those . . . who claim to be atheists."
Books marked with one asterisk indicate either Christian classics or great books of the Christian tradition. Books marked with two asterisks indicate non-Christian books or other books which have shaped our world. Some of the Christian classics can be found online here.
As I read each book, I will comment briefly on the bits that I liked . . .
