Hi Ashley.

Have you tried bookshare?  They have a pretty good selection of all
kinds of books, so they might have a lot of different Christian books.
 It's worth a look.  I know for instance that they have a lot of books
about the bible and many different versions of the bible.  Now they
won't have the newest stuff, but still, you can probably find
something.

And...  I agree about the forwards.  I rarely read them.
