And I find that, like working out, the more you do it, the longer you can go before getting weary. I hope we get to read and write in the eternal kingdom... That is a great list of books. I think I have read about half of them. I never did buy or read JB Hixon's book. And I can't say that I've read all of Chafer or Geisler. And I have never actually heard of Glasser's book. What is that about? I'm sure you realized it, but this 4000 books list is not a book of my favorite books, just a record of books I've read. I'm not fully sure what books would be on my top 10 list.
