Reasonable Theology Podcast The 5-Foot Bookshelf: 57 GREAT BOOKS Every Christian Should Own
Introducing the 5-Foot Bookshelf, my list of 57 must-have books every Christian should own, all fitting neatly into a 5-foot shelf!
This whole idea was sparked by Charles W. Elliot, a past president of Harvard University, who believed you could get a solid education with just a 3-foot bookshelf. Eventually, he expanded it to 5 feet and filled it with a wide range of books now known as the "Harvard Classics."
I've curated a list of books in areas like Biblical studies, theology, church history, and Christian living, aiming to deepen your understanding of Scripture and strengthen your faith. Whether you're building your library from scratch, looking to expand your shelves, or just interested in a good book recommendation you're sure to find something on this list.
As the title suggests, these recommendations take up only 5 feet of shelf space in total, making this the perfect list for those with limited shelf space and a limited budget.
