  • Rejoice & Tremble (Michael Reeves)

    “Like an elder brother, Michael Reeves guides us into a fresh understanding of the fear of the Lord.”

    — Sinclair B. Ferguson

    Fear is one of the strongest human emotions—and one that often baffles Christians. In the Bible the picture can seem equally confusing: Is fear a good thing or a bad thing? And what does it mean to “fear the Lord”?

    In Rejoice and Tremble, Michael Reeves clears the clouds of confusion and shows that the fear of the Lord is not a negative thing at all, but an intensely delighted wondering at God, our Creator and Redeemer.

  • The Works of Hugh Binning

    Hugh Binning (1627-1653) lived at a time when politics and religion were inexorably intertwined. Binning trained as a Philosopher – believing that philosophy was the servant of theology but that both should be taught in parallel. Binning’s writing forms an important bridge between the 17th century, when philosophy in Scotland was heavily dominated by Calvinism, and the 18th century when there was a greater degree of independence between theology and allied philosophy.

    Of Binning’s speaking style, it was said: “There is originality without any affectation, a rich imagination, without anything fanciful or extravert, the utmost simplicity, without a thing mean or trifling.” – The Religious Magazine, 1830

  • The Works of John Newton (4 volumes)

    Newton has a firm place in the classics of Christian literature. While his style is strong and clear, it is the spiritual attractiveness and importance of his main themes which secure the permanent value of his writings. Most of his books came, unpremeditated, out of a need to help his congregation or individual hearers, and it is in practical helpfulness towards Christian living that he excels.

  • A Lifting Up for the Downcast (William Bridge) (#1)

    These thirteen sermons on Psalm 42:11, preached at Stepney, London, in the year 1648 are the work of a true physician of souls. In dealing with believers suffering from spiritual depression, Bridge manifests great insight into the causes of the saints’ discouragements such as great sins, weak grace, failure in duties, want of assurance, temptation, desertion and affliction.

    A correct diagnosis is more than half the cure, but Bridge does not leave his readers there. He gives directions for applying the remedy. For example, in dealing with ‘great sins’ he says:  “If you would be truly humbled and not be discouraged; not be discouraged and yet be humbled; then beat and drive up all your sin to your unbelief, and lay the stress and weight of all your sorrow upon that sin.”

    The general causes of spiritual depression are the same in every age. Downcast Christians today can find help here as surely as did past generations.

  • Flowers from a Puritan’s Garden (C. H. Spurgeon) (#52)

    Charles Spurgeon was a lover of the Puritans, but was especially fond of Thomas Manton. So, Spurgeon collected various short excerpts from Manton’s writings, and gathered them into one volume, for his own joy and edification. Eventually it was published, first in the 1880s. Contains one full year of daily readings. Now we have these daily devotional readings taken from Spurgeon’s favorite Puritan, back in print!

    Thomas Manton’s complete works filled 22 volumes with rich theology and commentary on Scripture, from which Spurgeon selected his most-loved nuggets of wisdom and exposition of Scripture; Spurgeon also added some of his own devotional thoughts to the volume.

    Glorifying God in Your Body (Albert N. Martin)

    Whose Is It — Yours or His?

    It seems that our culture promotes either one extreme or the other—either that we worship our bodies or completely neglect them. The government tells us that obesity in our country is at an epidemic level. There is no shortage of “Christian” programs, support groups, and exercise videos aimed at weight loss.

    However, there is a genuine dearth of pointed practical exhortation based on sound biblical and theological instruction to help God’s people avoid sinful extremes and glorify Him with their bodies. Glorifying God in Your Body helps to fill this void. A. N. Martin is thoroughly scriptural, practical, and evangelical—pointing to Christ as our one great motive and our only hope for strength to follow the Bible’s teaching that we should discipline our bodies for His glory. I heartily recommend this book.

  • Instruments in the Redeemer’s Hands (Paul David Tripp)

    People in Need of Change – Helping People in Need of Change

  • The Christian in Complete Armour (William Gurnall)

    “If I might read only one book beside the Bible, I would choose The Christian in Complete Armour.” — John Newton, 17th century English pastor and author of the hymn Amazing Grace. 

    “Gurnall’s work is peerless and priceless; every line is full of wisdom; every sentence is suggestive. The whole book has been preached over scores of times, and is, in our judgement, the best thought-breeder in all our library.” (Charles Spurgeon).

    The book is a vast collection of sermons on Ephesians 6:10-20, on being “strong in the Lord.”

    “The world is a battleground, the Christian life a warfare, the devil an enemy. Sin makes us vulnerable, but Christ provides well-tested armour and assures His people of victory. This is the biblical and Puritan view of the life of faith, and few authors have understood it more accurately or described it more vividly than William Gurnall.

    Generation after generation of Christians have found wise counsel and lasting encouragement in the pages of Gurnall’s grand book.

  • Created to Draw Near: Our Life as God’s Royal Priests (Edward T. Welch)

    You are a royal priest.
    That Reality Will Change Your Life

    Human beings are wired for connection. We long for deep relationships and real intimacy—both of which reflect our fundamental desire to be close to God. But all too often, whether because of our sin or our failures, we imagine that God prefers to keep his distance.

    In this book, Edward T. Welch shows us the purpose for which we were created: to be brought near to God as a kingdom of priests. He traces the priestly identity throughout the entire Bible, showing us how holiness leads to closeness to God. Through the blood of Jesus, God extends his invitation for all to draw near with open arms. And in his presence, we discover what it means to be truly human: known, unashamed, and wise, full of meaning, purpose, and abundant life.

  • In the Beginning: Listening to Genesis 1 and 2 (Cornelis Van Dam)

    Do the opening chapters of Genesis constitute real history?

    Concerned with an apparent shift among conservative scholars to answer in the negative, Cornelis Van Dam argues that reading Genesis 1 and 2 as history is not only justified but necessary. Van Dam clarifies the different roles that ancient Near Eastern literature and scientific theories should play in our understanding of the Bible as he carefully deals with the exegetical details of the first two chapters of the Bible.

    Pastors, students, and church leaders will find In the Beginning an informed guide that will restore their confidence in the complete reliability of the Genesis creation account.

  • A Discussion of the Seventeenth Century Particular Baptist Confessions of Faith (Richard P. Belcher, Anthony Mattia)

    Published to Examine the Historical, Political, and Religious Background of the 1644 and 1689 London Baptist Confessions of Faith.

    There are those today who claim that The First London Confession in its 1644 and 1646 editions has a different view of the Law than does The Second London Confession of 1689. It is contended that the First London Confession has a New Covenant emphasis that was lost or eliminated in the Second London Confession. The Second, it is claimed, possessed an Old Covenant emphasis concerning the Law because of the influence of the Westminster Confession as its view was forced on Baptists by the historical, religious, and political climate of the day.

    Dr. Belcher and Anthony Mattia examine these claims to determine their historical validity. The authors set forth the evidence from history in a clear and convincing manner as they reach definite conclusions concerning this important and controversial subject. This book is a must for those who want to inform themselves further about the religious and political background of the seventeenth century Baptist confessions of faith.

  • Lectures in Systematic Theology, Volume II: Doctrine of Man (Greg Nichols)

    Even as we should approach the doctrine of God with profound awe of divine grandeur, so also we should study the doctrine of man with a deep sense of human smallness and lowliness, with biblical humility. We should study man with the perspective that in comparison to God, man is miniscule and laden with moral poverty. We only achieve this biblical demeanor to the extent that we view human life against the backdrop of God’s Being.
