There is a thread in a “Christians Only” forum where members discuss the books they are reading. I think there needs to be a thread like that for Christians and non-Christians and that it will be profitable for both groups to have access to it.

When I was teaching Christian theology to college students - Christians and non-Christians - I had a sign displayed in my classroom:

Read widely. Read deeply. Read thoughtfully. Read critically.

I read the Bible daily. I read other books daily too. I read books primarily on the subject of theology, but I read books on other subjects occasionally too.

A few months ago I began reading and rereading the Ante-Nicene Church Fathers. I began, at the suggestion of a Roman Catholic friend I made on Christianity Board, with Tertullian. To date, I’ve read / reread 24 of his extant writings. I have a few more of his to read to complete them all. I’ve also read all of the extant writings of Tatian and Athenagoras last month.

Today I’ve begun reading the first of 3 books written by Theophilus, all titled To Autolycus.

Hello @Matthias,
