Steve McCoy has launched a series he's calling the Big 5 in which he'll be asking readers for book recommendations on select topics. In his first post he asks for five titles for a church's book table and gives the following guidelines: "Your 5 should be somewhat diverse. In other words, don't give me 5 books on theology only. Mix it up. And I know you want to list more than 5, but no cheating! Don't necessarily suggest your best 5. Get creative. Mention some others won't mention."
Boy, did I have a rough time whittling my list down to five (I was stuck at six for the longest!) but here, at last, are my picks. Check out Reformissionary to see what others recommend and add your own Big 5.
Questioning Evangelism by Randy Newman (I reviewed this one here)
Total Truth by Nancy Pearcey
Relationships: A Mess Worth Making by Tim Lane and Paul Tripp
Decision Making and the Will of God by Garry Friesen
Will Medicine Stop the Pain? by Elyse Fitzpatrick and Laura Hendrickson, M.D. (I gave a synopsis here)

Choosing only 5 books is way too painful; however, any list of mine would have to include John Owen's Overcoming Sin and Temptation and anything from Jonathan Edwards.
