“We have left undone those things which we ought to have done; and we have done those things which we ought not to have done.” But what are “those things”? Why do we confess them? The purpose of confessing our sins is not simply to remind us what great sinners we are, but rather to point us to the great Savior we have.

In a new book inspired by the Puritan classic The Valley of Vision, this volume provides specific prayers of confession in response to particular Scripture passages. They are ideal for use in church or in personal devotions.
