ATHENS, part 3: with Phillip Martin and Brent Moody

Register your feedback here. Always good to hear from you!It’s nice, if a bit intimidating, to be in the room with people smarter and better read than you. That’s how I felt in this week’s conversation with Phillip Martin and Brent Moody.We wrap up by discussing how to build a library. You may be surprised at some of the suggestions they make. Fewer books. Getting rid of Bible dictionaries and concordances. Nice words about the NIV. You’re going to want pen and paper nearby for this one.
