Building a God-Centered Family: A Father’s Manual (Matthew Henry, edited by Scott Brown)
$9.75Matthew Henry is known worldwide in our time as the author of his famous commentary on the Scriptures. But far less known in our day is the fact that Henry was a model of faithful fatherhood during his lifetime. Henry took his duties as a father seriously. And it showed. One observer noted that the Henry household was like unto the “gates of heaven” where he and his wife governed all family life by the Word of God.
Matthew Henry carried his passion for family discipleship into the pulpit. On April 16, 1704, he preached an abundantly practical sermon entitled, A Church in the House: A Sermon Concerning Family-Religion, as an encouragement to fathers to develop the spiritual life of their families in their homes. This book – Building A God Centered Family: A Father’s Guide – is Scott Brown’s revised title for that valuable sermon.Henry exhorted that “every house should be a little church”. Not that the home can or should replace the church, but that our homes should also be a place of worship, prayer, and learning the Word of God.$12.00 -
The Pleasantness of a Religious Life (Matthew Henry)
$13.75True piety has true pleasure in it.
In six chapters on Proverbs 3:17, Matthew Henry proves and illustrates the doctrine of religious pleasantness, saying the religious life is the only life worth living. “What was the fall and apostasy of man, and what is still his sin and misery, but the soul’s revolt from the divine life, and giving up itself wholly to the animal life?”
Henry’s work is a treasure, helping to demolish Satan’s insinuation that true religion is boring and burdensome. Read Henry’s Pleasantness of a Religious Life and see why Christians really are the happiest creatures on earth.
