  • Christ Set Forth (Thomas Goodwin) (#47)

    First published in 1642, Christ Set Forth — one of Thomas Goodwin’s most beloved and enduring works — is a book full of theological riches and penetrating pastoral insights. Addressing, from an exposition of Romans 8:34, the pastoral problem that many believers stray in their faith by looking into their own hearts for signs of grace instead of looking away from themselves to Christ, Christ Set Forth is primarily a book written to encourage Christians.

  • Communion With God: Fellowship with Father, Son and Holy Spirit (John Owen)

    In 1657, John Owen produced one of his finest devotional treatises: probably originating from the substance of a series of sermons.

    He examines the Christian’s communion with God as it relates to all three members of the trinity. He assures that every Christian does have communion with God, no one is excluded and that this communion takes place distinctly with Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Our relationship with…

    God the Father is primarily through love and faith.
    God the Son is through fellowship & grace.
    God the Holy Spirit is primarily through comfort and sanctification.

    This was a controversial work in ecclesiastical circles of the 17th century. Twenty years after its publication, the rational ecclesiastical elite were scoffing at its contents. Owen strongly defended the ideas within this book, and history has shown him to be right! It is a classic of Christian devotional thought that still influences the church today. This is the original text with a new layout and is fully subtitled which makes it more accessible to a new generation of readers.

  • The Poems of Anne Bradstreet

    A real sense of calm pervades Bradstreet’s poetry. She has genuine affection for the things she writes about, whether that be family, or the vistas of nature, or her husband, or the “pleasant things” lost in the house fire, and so in no way does she come across as a pinched ascetic. But neither does she come across as someone who is in frantic pursuit of worldly goods.

    Anne Bradstreet came to fame when someone published her poetry as The Tenth Muse Lately Sprung Up in America. Anne Bradstreet was a Puritan who had crossed the ocean to help found the new colony in America. She lived on the frontier and lived a fairly uneventful life loving her husband and children. However, she was also a well-educated and imaginative woman whose poetry continues to be admired to this day. This collection of her poems is a forgotten classic that we would be well advised to read.

    A Guide to Christ (Solomon Stoddard)

    Written by Solomon Stoddard, grandfather of Jonathan Edwards, to instruct ministers how to work with those who were under conviction of sin, and who were seeking God, in order to lead them to Christ rightly.

    Stoddard experienced several seasons of genuine revival during his pastorate at Northampton, Massachusetts. He had observed how the Spirit of God worked in the lives of men during these times. He, more than almost any other person of his day, knew the twists and turns of the human heart. He was not fooled by presumptuous hopes and false religious affections.

    A heart-rending, moving explanation of Psalm 51:17: “The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.” This was John Bunyan’s final written work, in which this aged pastor sought to show why a broken heart is so very much acceptable to God.

  • John Owen: Prince of Puritans (Andrew Thomson)

    He’s been called the “Prince of the Puritans.” His works fill vast volumes. 300 years after his death, his books are still in print and eagerly devoured by readers, and J.I. Packer has said, “I owe more to John Owen than to any other theologian — ancient or modern.” But who was John Owen? In this fascinating biography, Andrew Thompson chronicles the life of this foremost of Puritans and introduces the man behind the theology.

    John Owen (1616-1683) was one of the defining theologians of the Puritan era. His books have been continually in print since then. This biography has often been published as part of Owen’s works. A pastor first, Owen was ejected from his position by the English government, after which he devoted himself to developing other men for the ministry, writing commentaries, theological studies and defending the nonconformists from state persecution.

  • The Preaching of Jonathan Edwards (John Carrick)

    Jonathan Edwards (1703-58) is widely regarded not only as America’s greatest theologian and philosopher, but also as one of her greatest preachers. It is a remarkable fact, however, that his preaching has been somewhat neglected, both in academic circles and in the Reformed churches. Published in the year that marks the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of his death, this book successfully straddles the church’s and the academy’s interest in Edwards and supplies that omission.

    Dr Carrick demonstrates that Edwards was preaching and writing at a unique moment in history when the Puritan spirit and the spirit of the Enlightenment intersected; he traces the remarkable fall and rise of interest in the great American preacher theologian in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries; he interacts, both positively and critically, with the now complete Yale edition of Edwards’ Works and also with the ever burgeoning field of Edwards scholarship; and he cites extensively from Edwards’ sermons, treatises, and Miscellanies in order to demonstrate the power and the profundity of his preaching and thought.

  • The Art of Divine Contentment (Thomas Watson)

    One of the great old Puritan classics, and one of the most readable, by an author skilled in the art of illustration as few men in history have been. Few lessons are more difficult or necessary for the Christian than learning contentment of heart, in the abounding and abasing changes of life. And few are more qualified to provide sound biblical counsel in this area than Thomas Watson.

    One of his most popular writings of all time, this explains what real contentment is and how to obtain it. While laying the axe to the root of such sins as envy, covetousness, murmuring and discontent, he provides helpful instructions for cultivating a disposition of humility and trust in our God’s providence in our lives.

  • Facing Grief: Counsel for Mourners (John Flavel) (#10)

    From a Puritan minister who faced many sufferings in his life, including the death of his first – and second wife, along with persecution, comes this volume of outstanding counsel, originally titled “A Token for Mourners.”

    The work is intended to provide biblical comfort to ‘godly mourners’. This book is full of Scripture, counsel, warning, and wisdom gained from prayerful reflection on the personal experience of affliction in loss and grief.

    For over 150 years Flavel’s Token for Mourners was printed and re-printed in England and America. The times demanded that the heart-breaking experience of the loss of children be faced by most parents. And generations of Christian parents found comfort through this little book.
