Christian, do you speak about the Gospel to others because you feel you are required to, or is it because you "cannot but speak of what we have seen and heard" (Acts 4:20).
If you do not want to speak of the Gospel to others, than you may wish to examine your heart, for it is not "Good News" to you.
Just felt like sharing my current, recent and upcoming reading lists:

(I am not enjoying this last one at all. The author claims to be Reformed, but leans too far towards "liberal theology" in some areas when I compare to Scripture. I'm continuing through this one just to keep testing my understanding of Scripture.)
