  • The Shepherd Leader: Achieving Effective Shepherding in Your Church (Timothy Witmer)

    The Shepherd Leader is a book that strives to bring the importance of shepherding to the forefront of our thinking about what church leaders should do and, therefore, what they should be. Too many church leaders perceive of themselves as a “board of directors” when the Bible is clear that they are to know, feed, lead, and protect the flock entrusted to their care.

  • The Case and Cure of a Deserted Soul (Joseph Symonds)

    In The Case and Cure of a Deserted Soul, Joseph Symonds (d. 1652) explores the nature, causes, and treatment of spiritual depression — a state that arises when God seems to hide his face, leaving the Christian to walk alone in a “dark night of the soul.” In Symond’s word, every aspect of this painful experience is examined with a surgeon’s precision, a philosopher’s insight, and the Word of God’s wisdom on how to gain a firmer footing and emerge from this melancholy hour with renewed strength and vivacity.

    Previously out-of-print, this classic treatise has been carefully prepared for the benefit and enjoyment of a new generation of Christian readers.

  • Gospel Assurance and Warnings (Paul Washer)

    It should come as no surprise that misunderstandings about the gospel message and the nature of true conversion result in a problem with genuine assurance of salvation. A pseudo-gospel of “easy believism” has led many into careless presumption, and a poor understanding of salvation has abandoned tender consciences to near spiritual despair.

    In Gospel Assurance and Warnings, Paul Washer shines the light of gospel hope as he cautions against the dangers of making an empty profession of faith and carefully explains from Scripture the basis for establishing and maintaining a sound assurance of faith.

  • Addictions: A Banquet in the Grave – Finding Hope in the Power of the Gospel (Ed Welch)

  • The Crook in the Lot (Thomas Boston) (#49)

    What to Believe when our lot in life is not health, wealth, and happiness

    Thomas Boston (1676-1732) was a remarkable Scottish theologian and pastor. His Works run to 12 volumes and contain some lengthy theological treatises. But Boston also wrote brief, very accessible, and pastoral books, and chief among these is the quaintly titled, The Crook in the Lot: The Sovereignty and Wisdom of God, in the Afflictions of Men Displayed. This little book is a pastoral masterpiece, in which Boston reflects on the words of Ecclesiastes 7:13, ‘Consider the work of God: for who can make that straight which he hath made crooked?’

    By ‘lot’, Boston means our ‘lot in life’, the shape of our lives as they are styled by God’s many providences. By ‘crook’, he means those unforeseen troubles that afflict, unsettle, or disturb us in any way. Boston sets out to minister pastoral wisdom and help to God’s people experiencing what Paul calls ‘the sufferings of this present time’ (Rom. 8:18).

  • Resisting Gossip: Winning the War of the Wagging Tongue (Matthew Mitchell)

Is it even possible for us to walk in God’s instructions?

    In Resisting Gossip, Pastor Matt Mitchell not only outlines the scriptural warnings against gossip, but also demonstrates how the truth of the gospel can deliver believers from this temptation. Questions for group discussion are also provided for your study.

  • Holiness: Its Nature, Hindrances, Difficulties and Roots (J. C. Ryle)

    “This book is simply the best of Ryle, the Puritan-type pastor. Real Christians will find it a gold mine, a feast, a spur and a heart-warmer, food, drink, medicine, and a course of vitamins, all in one.” — J. I. Packer

    Holiness: Its Nature, Hindrances, Difficulties, and Roots is perhaps J. C. Ryle’s best-known and best-loved book. Although many things have changed since 1877, when it was first published, one thing remains the same: ‘real practical holiness does not receive the attention it deserves.’  It was to remedy this and to counter false teaching on this most important subject, that Ryle took up his pen.

    The 21 chapters in this enlarged edition highlight:

    • the real nature of holiness
    • the temptations and difficulties which all must expect who pursue it
    • the life-transforming truth that union with Christ is the root of holiness
    • the immense encouragement Jesus Christ holds out to all who strive to be holy.

    Holiness, as with all of Ryle’s works, is clear and concise, penetrating and practical.

  • Grieving: Your Path Back to Peace (James White)

    An excellent summary of the key issues related to grief, and in a brief, readable form that a grieving person will read and not be overly daunted by. Using personal examples and his background as a grief counselor, pastor James White shares words that every pastor, every counselor, every person facing loss, and anyone that wants to help those who are, should read.

    People in grief wonder if they will ever feel okay again. Not only do you face overwhelming emotions of loss, you can feel discouraged or even ashamed when your grief doesn’t disappear quickly or happen in neat, orderly stages. For all people who have experienced loss, moments of joy and normalcy mix with moments of sadness and anger. Being moved once again by painful emotions you thought you had tamed isn’t a setback. It’s part of an upward process of healing. And when you allow your grief to be accompanied by hope in God, grieving can be your path back to peace.

  • Modesty: More Than a Change of Clothes (Martha Peace, Kent Keller)

    Modesty is about far More than a Change of Clothes

    Modesty might seem like a “gray area,” but it should matter to us because it matters to God! In the Bible, immodesty is forbidden for reasons that go beyond mere outward appearance. Martha and Kent write to teen girls in alternating sections, helping them to identify immodesty’s causes and consequences, detect legalism, and seek modesty in their actions and dress. The book includes numerous helpful discussion questions.

    “It is refreshing to see the topic of modesty elevated to the importance that it deserves!”
    — Mary K. Mohler, Director, Seminary Wives Institute and wife of President Albert Mohler, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Louisville, KY

    “A God-centered, gospel-saturated, and practical guide to the uncomfortable topic of modesty.”
    — Brian H. Cosby, Author, Giving Up Gimmicks

    “Martha and Kent carefully apply the Bible’s teaching on the heart of modesty. We highly recommend it to you.”

  • Homosexuality: Speaking the Truth in Love

    “Homosexuality is the hot issue of the day,” says Edward T. Welch in this booklet. “Even more than abortion, it will confront the church throughout this generation, forcing us to listen, study, and respond wisely.”  How can we answer claims that the Bible does not prohibit committed homosexual relationships? Or that science proves that homosexuality is genetic, not a chosen lifestyle? Welch supplies us with timely biblical and biological insight into homosexuality. Just as importantly, he calls us to examine our attitudes in order to minister to homosexuals truthfully, compassionately, humbly, and persuasively.
