BUILDING ATHEOLOGICALLIBRARYREVISED EDITION 2017DANIEL L. AKIN
WHY BUILD A BIBLICAL/THEOLOGICAL LIBRARY?Books are to the minister of the gospel of Jesus Christ what tools are to thecarpenter: the essentials of the trade. A call to ministry is a call to preparation,and the building of a ministry library is a must, not an option.As the apostle Paul faced his impending death, he still remained a student,requesting of Timothy that he bring the books when he came to visit him inprison (2 Tim. 4:13). This booklet has been prepared for those who desire tofollow in Paul’s steps.Warren Wiersbe offers some sound wisdom for this very task: “My booksare my tools, and I use them. I cannot afford to be a book collector; neither thebudget nor the diminishing shelf space . permits such a luxury . I enjoy mylibrary. Each book is a friend that converses with and teaches me. Better tohave fewer of the best books than to clutter your shelves with volumes thatcannot serve you well. Above all, love your books, use them, and dedicate allyou learn to the service of Jesus Christ.” To that end we have provided morethan 1,000 titles to assist you in building your library and faithfully serving ourLord. Most titles are written from an evangelical perspective, having beenauthored by individuals who affirm the full authority and inspiration of Scripture(Matt. 5:17-18; 2 Tim. 3:16-17; 2 Pet. 1:20-21).While a good library is necessary as a solid foundation for ministry, training undergodly men and women is also important (2 Tim. 2:2). You may be someone whosenses God’s calling for further study and preparation. Southeastern BaptistTheological Seminary exists for this very purpose, with a faculty and programsof study designed to enable the student to be a careful and equipped teacher ofthe God’s Word. Whether your calling is to be a missionary or evangelist, pastoror teacher, counselor, educator or minister of music and worship, SoutheasternSeminary is a community of faith which can better prepare you for service inthe body of Christ.Southeastern Seminary is committed to training men and women in soundevangelical scholarship to reach a lost world for Jesus Christ (Matt. 28:18:20). IfGod leads you our way, we will look forward to working with you.“Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has noneed to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth.” (2 Tim. 2:15).In His Name,Daniel L. Akin, PresidentSoutheastern Baptist Theological SeminaryWake Forest, North CarolinaSpecial thanks to Shane Shaddix for his assistance in updating this version.
