I haven't read a lot of books on the subject. But,
A Matter of Days by Hugh Ross, is a must read IMO. Probably my all-time favorite book. Reasons.org has some great podcasts as well.

that article made people who ascribe to OEC out to be enemies of God. What is wrong with people? i mean if they hold to YEC then fine but don't knock people for ascribing to an OEC point of view; instead, why not learn from each other and grow together. stuff like this is what creates more unnecessary division within the body of Christ and as someone who leans more on the OEC side it is upsetting to read such things. i view this as the same i do with the whole rapture debate. i hold to post trib point of view instead of the more common pre trib but i don't believe a person who holds to a pre trib position is an enemy of God although i have been told by pre tribers that my view on the rapture is un-biblical, that i need to go to church to find out the truth, i was also told that i don't produce good fruits and should just hold to whatever the church teaches without question since they were pastors and i am not. yeah, i'm dead serious i have been told that before during a bible study where i offered up other perspectives on the rapture. the article you linked reminded me of those things and it's sad to me when people alienate their own brothers and sisters behind their theologies. whatever happened to iron sharpens iron. Proverbs 27:17 or edification within the body in love. Ephesians 4:16
