Big books sometimes seem daunting. However, when you view them as made up of many small books, they aren't so big anymore, they're more easily storable! There are a variety of excellent Systematic Theology books available to the church today. Some are bigger than others, but each seeks to take the major themes of the Bible and explain what the themes means (i.e., salvation, God, etc.). 

Such reading is important for any serious student of the Bible. We would recommend the following with joy:

• Charles Hodge, 3 Vols.
• Wayne Grudem
• Robert Culver

Few resources have been more shaping for the present generation of Christian's than this book. If you long to know God more, and to live a life that pleases Him, this book will be your treasured friend!
