I had trouble closing my dresser drawers this afternoon. I pushed harder on the thick padding of shirts and pants. No movement. It was full - really, really full. I tossed the remaining pieces of clothing from the neatly folded laundry pile back onto my bed.

Not only did Alex and Brett interview Leeland, but on visiting Leeland’s site, I found you can actually listen to the entire album online for free. That’s awesome.

I have both those sets of books. The Spurgeons I have with me but my Barnhouse ones are back in my dormroom. I recieved Mark Dever’s over view of the Old and New Testament and three of Francis Schaeffer’s books for Christmas. I also recieved some classical music as well.

So, what did you receive this year?
God has been good to me this year. I received Grudem’s Systematic Theology, two books by Mark Driscoll (The Radical Reformission and Confessions of a Reformission Rev), two books by C.J. Mahaney (Humility: True Greatness and Living the Cross-Centered Life), Mark Dever’s Nine Marks of a Healthy Church and J.I. Packer’s Knowing God. That’s just books alone, but I won’t go into the unnecessaries.
What was your favorite gift?
Oy…tough one. I haven’t read them all yet so I’ll have to reserve judgment on that.
What did you learn this Christmas?
It’s so much more beautiful to serve and emphasize the Gospel than to look at the marvelous traditions that we keep. It sometimes just deepens the traditions.

You got some real treasures there with you books you recieved Daivd. Both of Mahaney’s books are superb. So is Mark Dever’s book.
