Commendations of the Pocket Puritans series from Sinclair Ferguson:
“To read the work of a Puritan doctor of the soul is to enter a rich world of spiritual theology to feed the mind, heart-searching analysis to probe the conscience, Christ-centered grace to transform the heart, and wise counsel to direct the life. This series of Pocket Puritans provides all this in miniature, but also in abundance.”
A Review from Sharon James:
I first read this wonderful description of God’s perfect love when I was about twelve years – and I have returned to it regularly since then. Inspiring at any time, but a special comfort at time of bereavement.
About the Author
Jonathan Edwards (1703–1758) was born a little over seventy years after the first Puritan settlement of New England. At the time of his birth there were some 130 towns in the colony. He served the Northampton Congregational Church in Massachusetts for twenty-three years. Later in life, he moved to a missionary outpost to the Mohawk and Mohican tribes. In 1758, he became president of the College of New Jersey (now Princeton University). Edwards “is widely acknowledged to be America’s most important and original philosophical theologian,” and one of America’s greatest intellectuals.

Dying Thoughts (Richard Baxter) (#36)
$7.95Written in the final weeks of his own life, Puritan Richard Baxter has written the most searching, personal examination of the soul, for any person who feels the tension the Apostle Paul spoke of when he wrote in Philippians that he felt very much pulled in two directions – having a desire to remain in this world and labor on, for others, or a desire to depart and be with Christ, which is far better (Phil. 1:23).
Richard Baxter wrestles openly, before the reader, with his own doubts and fears, anxious to prepare his soul as he faces eternity.

The Saints’ Everlasting Rest (Richard Baxter)
$19.50In the throes of a long illness and confronting the possibility of death, 17th-century theologian Richard Baxter found comfort in the reality of heaven that awaits believers of Christ. During his recovery, Baxter wrote about the afterlife in what would become his best-selling book.
The Saints’ Everlasting Rest meditates on what Scripture reveals about heaven, helping believers live an abundant, God-honoring life in anticipation of eternal rest. Baxter encourages readers not to become distracted or discouraged by the temporal as he refocuses their minds on the eternal. Confronting difficult topics including sin, suffering, and fear of death, he also emphasizes God’s sufficient grace and how the promise of heaven enriches life on earth.
