If you are between the ages of 18 and 37 and grew up in Christian culture, you’ve likely shared a lot of unique experiences with your evangelical friends. Youth group lock-ins, Acquire the Fire road-trips and fall Harvest parties (which despite having costumes, candy and taking place on Oct. 31, obviously, had no association with Halloween) were all a part of your formative years.

Of course, this sub-culture also applied to your reading material. Here’s a look at 15 books, that depending on your age, were likely a part of your wholesome personal library.

Mr. Whittaker was sort of like Sandy Cohen, Indiana Jones and Doctor Who all rolled into a portly grandfather.

Jesus Freaks by DC Talk and Voice of the Martyrs



This book, which tells the story of actual Christian martyrs was branded like the DC Talk album of the same name. But don’t let the association with the fun-loving trio fool you. It was actually a pretty heavy read.

A deeper cut, but the truest depiction of Christian adolescent hijinks.

Thr3e by Ted Dekker



Because Frank Peretti was child’s play.

A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L’Engle



Still one of the greatest book covers ever created. Not only did it look awesome on the shelf at the book fair, it would be super killer airbrushed on the side of a van.

Left Behind by Tim Lahaye and Jerry Jenkins



Admit it, you owned a copy.

The Prayer of Jabez by Bruce Wilkinson



Expanded the territories for just how many books a Christian author could sell.

The Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren
