A Golden Chain (William Perkins)
$23.95Written by William Perkins (1558-1602), A Golden Chain is one of the best treatments of the doctrines of election and reprobation ever written. Due to its controversial nature, it is one of the few significant and influential works written by a Puritan which has not been widely republished as a standalone version. In this version of A Golden Chain, transcribed from the 1597 edition of Perkins’ work, it has been lightly abridged and modernized with simplified language and new structural diagrams. Also included is a brief introduction to both Perkins’ life and work written by Perkins scholar, Matthew Payne.

Knowing Sin (Mark Jones)
$12.50We don’t talk a lot about sin these days. But maybe we should. The Puritans sure did—because they understood sin’s deceptive power and wanted to root it out of their lives. Shouldn’t we want the same?
Though many books have been written on the “doctrine of sin,” few are as practical and applicable as this one. In Knowing Sin, Mark Jones puts his expertise in the Puritans to work by distilling the vast wisdom of our Christian forebears into a single volume that summarizes their thought on this vital subject. The result isn’t a theological tome to sit on your shelf and gather dust, but a surprisingly relevant book to keep by your bedside and refer to again and again. You’ll come to understand topics like:
- Sin’s Origin
- Sin’s Grief
- Sin’s Thoughts
- Sin’s Temptations
- Sin’s Misery
- Sin’s Secrecy
- and of course . . . Sin’s Defeat!
None of us is free from the struggle with sin. The question isn’t whether we’re sinful, it’s what we’re doing about it. Thanks be to God, there is a path to overcoming sin, in Christ.

Letters of Samuel Rutherford
$34.50Charles Spurgeon said: “What a wealth of spiritual ravishment we have here! Rutherford is beyond all praise of men. Like a strong-winged eagle he soars into the highest heaven and with unblenched eye he looks into the mystery of love divine. There is, to us, something mysterious, awe- creating and superhuman about Rutherford’s letters.
This edition is a noble volume, and we shall measure the soundness of Scotch religion very much by the sale of this work. When we are dead and gone, let the world know that Spurgeon held Rutherford’s Letters to be the nearest thing to inspiration which can be found in all the writings of mere men.”
Richard Cecil said of Rutherford, “He is one of my Classics; he is a real original.” Richard Baxter said of Rutherford’s letters that, other than the Bible, such a book the world never saw as this collection of letters. Finally once again in a hardcover edition.

Puritan: All of Life to the Glory of God (DVD set)
$87.50A documentary about the Puritan view of life, with 6 DVDs plus two books.
Joyless? Severe? Fanatical? It was historian H. L. Mencken who wrote that Puritans were a people “haunted by the fear that someone, somewhere, may be happy.” Is this a valid assessment of the Puritans?

An Ark for All God’s Noahs (Thomas Brooks) (#58)
$8.95We live in difficult days and in trying times. This book, with its quaint yet vivid title, points us to the One in whom Christian men and women have always found the strength to persevere come what may. Taking Lamentations 3:24 as his starting-point – ‘The Lord is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him,’ – Thomas Brooks expounds the attributes of God with the aim of comforting those who have felt not only the stresses and strains of daily life but also the shearing pain of loss in its various forms.
God, says Brooks, ‘is a portion that is exactly suited to the condition of the soul in its desires, needs, wants, longings and prayers. All the soul needs is found in God. There is light to enlighten the soul, wisdom to counsel the soul, power to support the soul, goodness to supply the soul, mercy to pardon the soul, beauty to delight the soul, glory to ravish the soul, and fullness to fill the soul.’

All Things Made New: John Flavel for the Christian Life (#51)
$9.75Numerous stories are told from John Flavel’s life of how people ‘happened to meet him’ and came away deeply thankful to God, full of resolve to walk with Christ as a result. The same is true of encounters made with Flavel’s writings, as in All Things Made New.
Flavel spent almost his entire ministry in a busy town serving working people. He believed that the gospel impacts and shapes every thought, every feeling, every ambition, emotion, desire, success, tragedy and joy. Christ makes all things new for the believer, and teaches us to follow him with confidence, until that day when he truly renews all things. To read Flavel is to catch and to be changed by the same vision.

The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment (Jeremiah Burroughs) (#7)
$8.00Without a doubt, the most readable and useful book ever written to promote a contented, thankful, uncomplaining and grateful walk with God. We live in a world of grumblers, discontent with God’s widespread goodness. It is all too easy for Christians to share in this spirit with the world.
This book, in typical Puritan form, “doctors” us by proposing remedies to our “spiritual disease” and helps us grow a spirit of thankfulness in its place.
The author focuses especially on helping to bring calm and contentment to the hearts of those in sad and discouraged times. He also aims to promote peace and harmony among believers with various differences of opinion.

The Mystery of Providence (John Flavel) (#4)
$8.75Do we believe that everything in the world and in our own lives down to the minutest details is ordered by the providence of God? Believers can benefit immeasurably from taking the time to observe and meditate on the workings of God’s providence, and Flavel instructs us how to improve the effort.
John Flavel’s The Mystery of Providence has gained renown for over 300 years as the all-time classic work on the subject of the providence of God. He starts with Psalm 57:2: “I will cry unto God most high; unto God that performeth all things for me.”, and from there, leads his readers to reflect on this truth: “It is the duty of the saints, especially in times of straits, to reflect upon the performances of Providence for them in all the states and through all the stages of their lives.”
Far from a merely theoretical book, this was authored by a pastor with a huge heart, living in times of political upheaval and with the cities of England disease-ridden, which even dramatically impacted his own family.
