Coming up with a top ten list of essential “must read” books is difficult. My proclivity is toward the great “cloud of witnesses” that have gone before us. One of the most difficult things is deciding what category of books to include in the list: theology? spirituality? fiction? biography? Well, you get the picture. 
So here it is in no particular order.
The Brothers Karamazov~ Fyodor Dostoevsky
Confessions~ Augustine
The Cost of Discipleship~ Dietrich Bonhoeffer
The Practice of the Presence of God~ Brother Lawrence
Mere Christianity~ C.S. Lewis
The Ragamuffin Gospel ~ Brennan Manning
The Politics of Jesus~ John Howard Yoder
Desiring God~ John Piper
Experiencing the Depths of Jesus Christ ~ Jeanne Guyon
What’s So Amazing About Grace?~ Philip Yancey
What does your list look like? Who are your favorite Christian authors (fiction/nonfiction)? What books have influenced you the most?
