Finished reading: Can We Trust the Gospels? by Peter J. Williams.
It’s a calm, thoughtful book that persuasively answers Yes, we can trust the Gospels. Williams offers evidence and reason to help you think through questions about changes in the text, whether or not we have Jesus’ actual words, the reliability of the authors, and more.
The book is eight short chapters, written at about a high school level.

If it’s been a while since you’ve thought through the doctrine of baptism, I highly recommend Baptism by Guy M. Richard. It’s clearly written, uses biblical arguments, and covers all the major questions: meaning, mode, who should be baptized, etc. We have a copy in our church library. 📚
