Free Book Friday: Christian Classics

In an Introduction to On the Incarnation by Athanasius, CS Lewis makes the case for reading old books. I recommend you read this excellent essay in its entirety. Lewis writes,

It is a good rule, after reading a new book, never to allow yourself another new one till you have read an old one in between. If that is too much for you, you should at least read one old one to every three new ones.

Remembering Lewis’ call to read old books, here are 7 free or $.99 Christian Classics everyone should read.
