Most helped by Watson (Ian Maclaren), Coffin, William Newton
Clarke, W.A. Brown,
Fosdick, Glover, Marcus Dods, Forbush, Martineau, Peabody,
Streeter, L.P. Jacks, William James, and Hocking. I find myself most often
quoting these and using (consciously and unconsciously) their ideas.
(No pretentions that this is an “Ideal Book List.” Just
those that one run-of-mine pastor found useful years on end.)
