Calvin on Sovereignty, Providence and Predestination (Joel R. Beeke)
$6.95Perhaps in your past you’ve heard a fair bit about John Calvin (1509-1564) and his teaching on the sovereignty of God and predestination, but you’ve never quite understood his supporters or his detractors. You know that both Calvin’s theology and these doctrines are important, but you are not entirely sure how to get your mind and arms around them. In this little book, Joel Beeke shows us why Calvin’s teaching on God’s sovereignty and predestination is crucial indeed. This is an extended version of an address Dr. Beeke originally gave at the Skogheim Conference in South Africa on June 28, 2009.

Suffering and the Sovereignty of God (John Piper and Justin Taylor)
$19.99In the last few years, 9/11, a tsunami, Hurricane Katrina, and many other tragedies have shown us that the vision of God in today’s churches in relation to evil and suffering is often frivolous. Against the overwhelming weight and seriousness of the Bible, many Christians are choosing to become more shallow, more entertainment-oriented, and therefore irrelevant in the face of massive suffering.
In Suffering and the Sovereignty of God, contributors John Piper, Joni Eareckson Tada, Steve Saint, Carl Ellis, David Powlison, Dustin Shramek, and Mark Talbot explore the many categories of God’s sovereignty as evidenced in his Word. They urge readers to look to Christ, even in suffering, to find the greatest confidence, deepest comfort, and sweetest fellowship they have ever known.

The Sovereignty of God (Arthur W. Pink)

Pink’s The Sovereignty of God continues to be one of the most helpful works on the matters of God’s sovereignty and providence. Wherein, in clear and accessible language, Pink guides the Christian through how God is sovereign over all the events that take place, and how he is working out all things for His glory and for those who love him. This edition, being entirely unabridged, is further supplemented by two additional essays written by Paul Helm and Brett Lee-Price which talk about the book’s historical significance and theology.

$15.95Where is God in the midst of the darkest days of human existence?

The Sovereignty of God (Unabridged HC) (Arthur W. Pink)
$19.99The Sovereignty of God by Arthur W. Pink is one of the most comprehensive studies on God’s decrees that are based on scripture alone; Sola Scriptura. Pink begins with a question in which every person needs to answer, and more especially those of the household of faith. “Who is regulating the affairs on this earth today—God or the Devil?” Pink continues with great insight and scripture references concerning God’s sovereignty in Operation, Salvation and Reprobation. He also addresses Human Responsibility, our attitude toward His Sovereignty and reflects on the Difficulties and Objections to this doctrine.

Providence (John Piper)
$32.50From Genesis to Revelation, the providence of God directs the entire course of redemptive history. Providence is “God’s purposeful sovereignty.” Its extent reaches down to the flight of electrons, up to the movements of galaxies, and into the heart of man. Its nature is wise and just and good. And its goal is the Christ-exalting glorification of God through the gladness of a redeemed people in a new world.
Drawing on a lifetime of theological reflection, biblical study, and practical ministry, pastor and author John Piper leads us on a stunning tour of the sightings of God’s providence—from Genesis to Revelation—to discover the all-encompassing reality of God’s purposeful sovereignty over all of creation and all of history.
Piper invites us to experience the profound effects of knowing the God of all-pervasive providence: the intensifying of true worship, the solidifying of wavering conviction, the strengthening of embattled faith, the toughening of joyful courage, and the advance of God’s mission in this world.

The Gardener’s Apprentice (by Cousin Kate)
$18.75“I have learned more about trusting God during difficult times in this short story than from any other book. It teaches what it means to be poor in spirit but rich in the kingdom of God; to mourn and be deeply comforted by God’s surprising blessings.” — Mark Hamby
This story can be read to children of all ages, especially to those with questions about salvation and the sovereignty of God. If you are looking for an admirable role model, you will be talking about Willy for a long time to come. Of all our Lamplighter books, I would place this in the top ten!

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.

The Freedom of the Will (Jonathan Edwards)
$23.50The most extensive, logical and Biblical treatment showing the true state of man’s will ever written, by America’s foremost scholar, Jonathan Edwards. This famous New England pastor and thinker of the 18th century meditated on these stirring subjects at great length; a reader will grasp how thoroughly he saw that these truths humble the pride of man and glorify God.
If you’ve believed the American lie that man has a completely “free will”, think again, letting the greatest American theologian who ever lived show you the truth of the matter: we are slaves of sin who need deliverance by the grace of God.

Evangelism and the Sovereignty of God (J. I. Packer)
$13.75If God is in control of everything, can Christians sit back and not bother to evangelize? Or does active evangelism imply that God is not really sovereign at all?
Dr. James Packer shows in this classic study how both of these attitudes are false. In a careful review of the biblical evidence, he shows how a right understanding of God’s sovereignty is not so much a barrier to evangelism as an incentive and powerful support for it.
This is a book of unspeakable value which has sharpened Christian minds on the subject of spreading the gospel since its first publication in 1961.

Chosen by God (R. C. Sproul)
$13.95With nearly 200,000 copies sold in the last 30 years, Chosen by God by Dr. R. C. Sproul is a contemporary classic on predestination, a doctrine that isn’t just for Calvinists, says Sproul – it’s a doctrine to comfort and encourage all biblical Christians.
In this updated and expanded edition of Chosen by God, Sproul shows that the doctrine of predestination doesn’t create a whimsical or spiteful picture of God, but paints a portrait of a loving God who provides redemption for radically corrupt humans. We choose God because he has opened our eyes to see his beauty; we love him because he first loved us. There is mystery in God’s ways, but not contradiction.

Going Beyond the Five Points: Pursuing a More Comprehensive Reformation (Rob Ventura, general editor)
$21.95In recent years, a doctrinal shift has taken place among believers so great that even the secular press has taken notice. Christians across denominational lines are laying hold of the biblical truth of God’s electing love and saving grace in Christ, commonly called Calvinism.
For many, this marks the beginning of a deeper study into the whole counsel of God in Scripture. A thirst to be thoroughly biblical in all areas of life is driving a more comprehensive present-day reformation beyond the famous ‘five points.’
This book captures the voices of seasoned Reformed pastors graciously guiding and encouraging Christ’s beloved sheep to press on and to seek the ‘old paths, where the good way is’ (Jer. 6:16).

What is Reformed Theology? (R. C. Sproul)
$14.00What do the five points of Calvinism really mean?
There are a lot of misconceptions in popular culture and the church regarding Reformed theology. Some references to it are positive, some negative. It’s time for a full, understandable explanation of what it really is and why it matters.

Sproul walks you through the foundations of the Reformed doctrine and explains how the Reformed belief is centered on God, based on God’s Word, and committed to faith in Jesus Christ. Dr. Sproul explains the five points of Reformed theology and makes plain the reality of God’s amazing grace.

The Doctrines of Grace: Rediscovering the Evangelical Gospel (James Boice)
$16.50Two respected pastors make a compelling case for the need to recover the five fundamental doctrines of the Christian faith.
There is no question that we live in an age of weak theology and casual Christianity. And this situation will continue as long as God’s people insist on substituting intuition for truth, feeling for belief, and immediate gratification for enduring hope.
Yet if believers will again denounce this self-centered faith and place Christ and his cross at the center of its vision, the church will see great days once more. According to authors James Montgomery Boice and Philip Graham Ryken, this will happen when believers specifically return to the gospel foundation with its doctrines of radical depravity, unconditional election, particular redemption, efficacious grace, and persevering grace.

The Sovereignty of God (A. W. Pink)
$12.50Frequently called one of the five most life-changing books of this century, and certainly among those we know, we have heard this testimony.
“Present day conditions call loudly for a new examination and new presentation of God’s omnipotence, God’s sufficiency, God’s sovereignty. From every pulpit in the land it needs to be thundered that God still lives, that God still observes, that God still reigns. Faith is now in the crucible, it is being tested by fire,and there is no fixed and sufficient resting-place for the heart and mind but in The Throne of God. What is needed now, as never before, is a full, positive, constraining setting forth of the Godhood of God.”

Trusting God – Even When Life Hurts (Jerry Bridges)
$13.99Sometimes we find it easier to obey God than to trust Him.
Because obeying God makes sense to us. In most cases, His laws appear reasonable and wise, and even when we don’t want to obey them, we usually concede that they are good for us. But the circumstances we find ourselves in often defy explanation. Before long, we begin to doubt God’s concern for us or His control over our lives. We ask, “Why is God allowing this?” or “What have I done wrong?”
During such a time of adversity, Jerry Bridges began a thorough Bible study on the topic of God’s sovereignty. What he learned changed his life, and in Trusting God he shares the fruit of that study. As you explore the scope of God’s power over nations, nature, and even the details of your life, you’ll find yourself trusting Him more completely—even when life hurts.
This new edition includes the study guide which used to be a separate volume – now all in one book.
