The Religious Affections (Jonathan Edwards)
he question driving this book, which Edwards wrote as part of his defense of the awakenings of the 1730s-1740s, is: “What are the distinguishing qualifications of those that are in favor with God, and entitled to his eternal life?”, or, in a shorter form, “What is the nature of true religion?”
A work of lasting value for the help of serious Christians in every generation, this book gives principles by which to assess the validity of a time of revival: is this a work of the Spirit of God?

The Narrow Way: Examining Both Heaven and Hell and the Message of Eternal Salvation in Jesus Christ (William Nichols)
Is there a heaven? If so, what is like? And is hell real? Are there actually many people going to hell after they die? And is what Jesus Christ taught about these topics more or less what is taught in most churches today, or have we strayed from that?
The author’s conviction is that many who profess to be Christians are sadly quite deceived about where they are headed after death, and he desires to prevent his readers from being one of them.
If Christ is the only way to know, it is vital that we know how to seek Him on His terms, not those of our own imagination.

Romans (Robert Haldane)
‘Dr. Chalmers styled this “a well-built commentary”, and strongly recommended it to students of theology. In his “Sabbath Readings” he writes: “I am reading Haldane’s Exposition of the Epistle to the Romans, and find it solid and congenial food.”‘ — C. H. Spurgeon
Robert Haldane’s Exposition of Romans, both in its contents and in the power of its influence, stands among the foremost of the many treatments of the epistle. As a commentary, Thomas Chalmers ‘strongly recommended’ it; Spurgeon put it in the front rank, and more recently, Martyn Lloyd-Jones owed ‘much profit and pleasure’ to it, characterizing its contents as unsurpassed in ‘warmth of spirit’ and ‘practical application’.

About the Author
In 1841, Ryle was ordained as a minister in the Church of England. In his first position in a rural parish he developed the plain and direct style of communication that would mark his future ministry. He served at several churches for the next forty years, during which time he wrote hundreds of evangelistic tracts. He was a wildly popular writer. His tracts sold more than 12 million copies in his lifetime, and were eventually translated into about a dozen European and Asian languages.
While his ministry flourished, Ryle’s home life was challenging. In 1844, he married his first wife, who died in 1847. He married again in 1849. The couple was happy, but his wife’s health was poor, so the pastor seldom travelled and practically raised his children alone. When his second wife died in 1860, he became a single father with five children between 2 and 14 years old.
Despite these hardships, Ryle became a leader among the evangelical clergy in his day. In 1880, he was appointed the first bishop of the newly formed diocese of Liverpool. Because the diocese was new, it had no system of leadership, no formal administration. During his tenure as Bishop of Liverpool, Ryle raised enough funds to build 90 new houses of worship, ordained over 500 deacons, 500 ministers, and at least 45 salaried lay Scripture readers and 31 Bible women. He founded the Lay Helpers Association, an organization that oversaw Sunday schools, Bible classes, mission services, and cared for sick.
