CCEL Christian Ebook Library

[Bob Russell]

If you are looking for a wide selection of Christian etexts, be sure to check out the Christian Classics Ethereal Library. For Christian resources, this one is a real keeper.

Classic Christian books in electronic format, selected for your edification. There is enough good reading material here to last you a lifetime, if you give each work the time it deserves!

The Vision [As given at the site itself]...
I would love to build the CCEL into a theological library containing 1000 of the most important public-domain works for theological study, containing:
-- Around 1000 volumes, selected by theologians and ministers from a variety of Christian traditions, to cover important topics for theological study and edification. A premliminary list of books wanted is available, but much more work must be done to develop it.
-- A good Bible translation for study that can be distributed relatively cheaply, such as the NRSV
-- Coverage of topics important for theological students
-- Commentaries, dictionaries, lexicons, and other reference works
-- Classic sermons and sermon illustrations
-- Indexes to the material by scripture reference (WWSB) and topic
-- The Bible and other important works in the original languages
-- Greek and Hebrew dictionaries and study tools
-- Markup of the texts in XML to identify theological subject matter, scripture references, etc.
-- A flexible, easy-to-use search engine
-- "Guided tours" or self-study guides on various topics
