About meMy interests are rather varied as hopefully my library indicates. I have a BA from Union University and at one time was working towards a Phd in Religion/NT which accounts for the bulk of religion literature in my library. However, my scholarly interests have since evolved and I am presently completing another BA in History with the hopes of being in a History Phd program within the next couple of years.

I have suddenly realized that I haven't catalogued any Bibles. Good grief!

Thank you kindly, Chris! The answer, of course, is that I am old......my college texts and reading immediately thereafter are all from the mid-60's. AFTER Christmas I hope to do some research among your more current books; I've been wanting something on Q, for instance.
Peace,
Peggy

I came over having snooped at a message you left my friend stellarexplorer. I'm interested to see that the few books we have in common don't seem to be particularly in the Bible study/theology line although I was a Bible and Religion major as an undergraduate. I think I need to look again to see what I've left out of my catalogue. At any rate, I hope you won't object to my marking your library "interesting." I've done it!
Cordially,
Peggy

Honored by the Interesting Libraries call-out -- thanks!

I am tantalized by your "nascent Christianity" tag and the books you have on the topic. What a fascinating subject!

Very glad you've joined, and I hope you will enjoy the group!
