  • Knowing Christ (Mark Jones)

    The Puritans loved the Bible, and dug into it in depth. Also, they loved the Lord Jesus, who is of course the Bible’s focal figure; they circled round him, centered on him, studied minutely all that Scripture had to say about him, and constantly, conscientiously, exalted him in their preaching, praises, and prayers.

    Mark Jones, an established expert on many aspects of Puritan thought, also loves the Bible and its Christ, and the Puritans as expositors of both; and out of this triune love he has written a memorable unpacking of the truth about the Saviour according to the classic Reformed tradition, and the Puritans supremely. Knowing Christ is a book calculated to enrich our twenty-first-century souls, and one that it is an honor to introduce.

  • The Bruised Reed (Richard Sibbes) (#26)

    “I shall never cease to be grateful to Richard Sibbes, who was a balm to my soul at a period in my life when I was overworked and badly overtired, and therefore subject in an unusual manner to the onslaughts of the devil. I found at that time that Richard Sibbes who was known in London in the early 17th century as “the Heavenly Doctor Sibbes” was an unfailing remedy. The Bruised Reed quietened, soothed, comforted, encouraged and healed me.”   — Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones

     

    Richard Sibbes (1577-1635), one of the most influential figures in the Puritan movement during the earlier years of the seventeenth century, was renowned for the rich quality of his ministry. The Bruised Reed shows why he was known among his contemporaries as ‘the sweet dropper’.

    The Bruised Reed is now issued for the first time in a smaller format in the Puritan Paperbacks series. Some of the language and punctuation have been modernized to make the work more accessible.

  • The Holy Spirit (John Owen) (#25)

    Considered among the greatest of all Christian books ever penned, Owen on the Holy Spirit deals with the name, nature, personality, and operations of the Holy Spirit. Owen effectively shows the true holiness of life which the Spirit of God imparts as quite superior to merely human morality and will.

    In it, Owen deals with the name, nature, personality, and operations of the Holy Spirit, and urges the necessity of gospel holiness as distinct from mere morality operating under human will and power. As is always the case with Owen, the writing is both doctrinal and pastoral in character. The exhaustive length of the original book has deterred many in our day from reading it, so we hope that this abridged modern English version will make Owen’s teaching more accessible to today’s readers.

  • Letters of Samuel Rutherford (2020 ed.)

    If you’ve ever wondered, why would I want to read a man’s letters, you have probably not read any of Rutherford’s yet. These are some of the most remarkable, devotionally rich letters in all literature, in the opinion of numerous students of church history. Charles Spurgeon called Rutherford’s letters “the nearest thing to inspiration which can be found in all the writings of mere men.”

    This edition contains 69 of Rutherford’s letters on a wide range of subjects. Rutherford was the well-known author of the lyrics to the hymn The Sands of Time are Sinking, sometimes known by its name as a poem, Emmanuel’s Land.

  • The Christian’s Great Interest (William Guthrie)

    Assurance of salvation is the subject of this highly readable, practical book, the only book the author ever wrote. With vast pastoral concern for believers struggling with uncertainty of heart about their assurance, and unbelievers living comfortably with a false assurance, Guthrie shows what a true interest in Christ is, and answers important and common questions that arise. John Owen, based on this one book, regarded Guthrie as one of the greatest ministers to have ever written.

    All of Guthrie’s teaching and pastoral experience were poured into The Christian’s Great Interest – his only book. The remarkable fact that is has gone through more than eighty editions and been translated into several languages testifies to its value. This book describes in a clear and attractive style what it means to be a Christian, and how to become one.

    This book is all about Christ: the Christian’s great interest should be Christ; the unbeliever needs to develop an interest in Christ. It describes in a simple, clear, and attractive style what it means to be a Christian, and how to become one.

  • The Tender Heart: Pocket Puritans Series (Richard Sibbes)

    Richard Sibbes always sought to get under the superficial layer of his listeners’ behavior and deal with their hearts, affections, and desires. In The Tender Heart, he explains that those who are tender-hearted do not simply desire salvation; they desire the Lord of salvation Himself. Only when a person is brought to love the Lord with heart-felt sincerity will they begin to hate their sin truly instead of merely dreading the thought of God’s punishment of it.

  • Christian Leaders of the Eighteenth Century (J. C. Ryle)

    Although much has been written on the evangelical revival of the 18th century, J. C. Ryle’s Christian Leaders of the 18th Century remains the best popular introduction to this great spiritual era.

    With simplicity and vigour, Ryle traces the lives of the eleven Christian leaders who ‘shook England from one end to another’, giving strong reasons for his belief ‘that excepting Luther and his Continental contemporaries, and our own martyred Reformers, the world has seen no such men since the days of the apostles.’

  • Indwelling Sin in Believers (John Owen) (#42)

  • Communion with God (John Owen) (#19)

    John Owen believed that communion with God lies at the heart of the Christian life. With Paul he recognized that through the Son we have access by the Spirit to the Father. He never lost the sense of amazement expressed by John: ‘Our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ’. In this outstanding book he explains the nature of this communion and describes the many privileges it brings.

    Communion with God was written in a day, like our own, when the doctrine of the Trinity was under attack and the Christian faith was being reduced either to rationalism on the one hand or mysticism on the other. His exposition shows that nothing is more vital to spiritual well-being than a practical knowledge of what this doctrine means.

    Until now, Communion With God has been read by only small numbers of Christians with access to the 275 closely-printed pages in The Works of John Owen. Now Dr. R. J. K. Law has produced a splendidly readable abridgement of one of the greatest Christian classics of all time, bringing Owen’s rich teaching to a much wider readership.

  • The Heart of Christ (Thomas Goodwin) (#45)

    The full original title of Goodwin’s book was, The Heart of Christ in Heaven towards Sinners on Earth and it was first published in 1651. Rapidly it became Thomas Goodwin’s (1600-1680) most popular work. It is a fine example of his Christ-centered preaching and his mix of theological rigor and pastoral concern. In it he aims to show from Scripture that, in all his heavenly majesty, Christ is not now aloof from believers and unconcerned, but has the strongest affections for them.

    Goodwin begins with the beautiful assurances given by Christ to his disciples, taking as an example of that love Christ’s washing of his disciples’ feet (John 13). The heart of his argument, however, lies in his exposition of Hebrews 4:15, in which Goodwin shows that in all his glorious holiness in heaven, Christ is not sour towards his people; if anything, his capacious heart beats more strongly than ever with tender love for them. And in particular, two things stir his compassion: our afflictions and—almost unbelievably—our sins.

  • Dying Thoughts (Richard Baxter) (#36)

    Written in the final weeks of his own life, Puritan Richard Baxter has written the most searching, personal examination of the soul, for any person who feels the tension the Apostle Paul spoke of when he wrote in Philippians that he felt very much pulled in two directions – having a desire to remain in this world and labor on, for others, or a desire to depart and be with Christ, which is far better (Phil. 1:23).

    Richard Baxter wrestles openly, before the reader, with his own doubts and fears, anxious to prepare his soul as he faces eternity.

  • Justification Vindicated (Robert Traill)

    A spirited defense of the doctrine and truth of Justification by Faith Alone from a Puritan writing during “The Killing Times”, when Scottish Protestants were being slaughtered. Traill demonstrates how false the charges of Antinomianism and lawlessness are against this truth and showing that faith alone is the only door by which sinners may enter the presence of the holy God.

    Can sinners really be justified before God by faith alone? If so, can they go on to live as they please? Robert Traill suffered persecution, exile and prison for faithfulness to the gospel. He shows here, in Justification Vindicated, with rare clarity and grace, that only justification by faith alone, shows sinners the way to a holy God, makes them a holy and obedient people, gives them joyful assurance of acceptance with God.

  • The Genius of Puritanism (Peter Lewis)

    One of our favorite books ever, and one of the most important books one can read about the Puritans. This introduction to the Puritans focuses on the thinking which drove their preaching, writing and counseling (pastoral work). The section on spiritual depression is immensely helpful and the bibliography in the back is worth the price of the book alone.

    “Lewis provides an excellent foretaste of the rich meal that readers of the works of the Puritans can enjoy. His arrangement of the matter–the brief biographical touches, the judicious selections threaded into a continuing theme, is brilliant.” — Dr. D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones

  • The True Bounds of Christian Freedom (Samuel Bolton)

    From a Puritan master, this is one of the best explanations ever written of the place of God’s law in the Christian life. Bolton delves into those vital questions about what being “free from the Law” truly means and what it does not mean.

    His careful study is presented with such clarify, it’s easily understandable even to those not familiar with Puritan writings, in a very readable style – and most of all, practical and helpful to your study of the Word of God.

  • Holiness: Its Nature, Hindrances, Difficulties and Roots – paperback (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.
