If you’re a new Christian, you may be wondering where to start when it comes to reading material that will help you grow in your faith. While there are countless books out there that can be beneficial, here are a few recommendations to get you started:
- The Bible – Of course, the most important book for any Christian to read is the Bible. While there are many translations available, I recommend the NKJV for its balance between accuracy and readability. For kids, the Bricks Testament can be a fun and engaging way to introduce them to the stories and themes of the Bible.
- Knowing God by J. I. Packer – This classic book by J.I. Packer provides a solid foundation for understanding the basic doctrines of the Christian faith, particularly in regards to who God is and how we can know him.
- Answers to Prayer From George Müller’s Narratives by George Müller – This free book, available in Kindle format, tells the story of George Müller, a man who cared for over 10,000 orphans through his trust in God’s provision. It’s a powerful testament to the importance of prayer and faith in action.
- Secret Power or the Secret of Success in Christian Life and Work by D. L. Moody – In this book, D.L. Moody explores the reasons why some Christians are successful and joyful in their walk with Christ, while others struggle. The Kindle edition is also available for free.
- The Complete Collection of E. M. Bounds on Prayer by E. M. Bounds – This 600-page masterpiece on prayer covers a wide range of topics and aspects of prayer, making it an excellent resource for anyone looking to deepen their prayer life.
- The Pursuit of God by A. W. Tozer – A classic Christian book, The Pursuit of God is a must-read for anyone seeking to deepen their relationship with God and grow in their faith.
- The Power of the Blood of Jesus by Andrew Murray – In this book, Andrew Murray explores the significance of Jesus’ blood in the Bible and how it affects us as Christians.
I hope these recommendations will be helpful to you as you seek to grow in your faith. Keep an eye out for future book recommendations, and remember that the most important book of all is the Bible.
