Al Mohler, President of The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, writes:
Christianity has been closely connected with the book and the written word from its inception. Books remain important to Christians — scholars and laypersons alike. We should be thankful that at this historical juncture the book is more accessible than ever. Serious Christians can and should start personal libraries of important and worthy Christian books. Some will be large and some will be small, but each can serve us the way Jerome’s library served him — and blessed the church.

Spencer,
You beat me to it! I was going to post this too. The book he mentions sounds like a good read.
