Recently in Christology class, Dr. Beeke was talking about the Gospel ministry, and how one application was to read good literature.
I thought it would be good to post some relevent lectures, interviews and other resources on reading good literature.

This is a really beautiful library! Is this how it really looks like or was it prettied up with Photoshop, I wonder?
The wood work and ceiling look breath-taking. That would be an outstanding place to go and visit!!
Thanks for posting the picture!

That is how it actually looks Edgar. If you do a search on my blog for libraries you will find a post where I link this site that has a ton of beautiful libraries.
I have thought that I would like to go tour libraries some day.
