Somehow I prefer hardcopies where I can feel/touch or even smell (not that I often do).Sometimes just the sight of my books sitting on the shelves gives me some kind of satisfaction. Come to think of it my hobby is more of collecting books rather than reading books. I couldn't really catch up with the reading anymore.
I know what you mean. There is nothing better than a book in your hands. The texture, the smell, the crispiness of the paper...
Problem is, some books go out of print and become impossible to find. Also when you travel, you do not have to lug around a big suitcase of books as I do. :)
I was raised a Presbyterian! But for the last 14 years, I have been worshipping in PJEFC. Some say, once you are a Presbyterian, you are a Presbyterian...!
I was baptized in a Lutheran church. Got married in a Methodist church (where my membership still remains). Now am worshiping in a Presbyterian church. I don't think I have any problem with the Westminster Confession of faith and as far as the doctrine of salvation is concerned, I think I'm Reformed. Wonder whether that's enough to make me a Presbyterian.
Look forward to meeting you on the 3rd of Nov in CDPC!

ReplyDeleteWell, even if they are free, no thanks.
A good resource. I better start finding a more durable storage facility to store the numerous electronic books I've collected to date.

hi bob k,
ReplyDeleteI am glad you like this resource. I find these books fascinating. However you should explore the rest of this website.
Hooray! They got Richard Baxter's The Reformed Pastor - my favourite required reading on pastoral ministry course in seminary!
ReplyDeletehi kar yong,
ReplyDeleteI also like Richard Baxter's Reformed Pastor. Looks like we have much in common. :)
