Psalms For All Seasons
Rediscovering the Riches of Their Original Design
Description
Book Description At one time, the Book of Psalms held a central place in the worship of biblically faithful churches. In many congregations, however, the Psalter has become neglected—not only are the psalms not regularly sung, but the public reading of them has been limited to occasions when the text of the sermon is taken […]
Heaven Taken By Storm
or The Christian Soldier
Description
Book Description Heaven Taken by Storm, or, The Christian Soldier is a call to arms. In it Thomas Watson expounds and applies, in his own unique and much-loved style, the words of the Lord Jesus in Matthew 11:12: ‘And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and […]
The Minister’s Self-Watch
And The Minister's Fainting Fits
Description
Book Description Perhaps two of the most common reasons for men leaving the ministry today are moral failure and depression, or ‘burn-out.’ The two addresses in this booklet have been selected from C. H. Spurgeon’s well-known Lectures to My Students (also published by the Trust), with the hope that they will be of real practical […]
Truth Spoken in Love
An Anthology of Quotations from J. C. Ryle
Description
Book Description In the writings of J. C. Ryle (1816–1900), generations of readers have found faithful biblical wisdom and searching applications that aim at the heart. As the compiler of this anthology notes, ‘if there were two things that stand out like jewels in his crown, they were Ryle’s unflagging determination to tell us the […]
The Two Prophets to Nineveh
Goodness and Severity in Jonah and Nahum
Description
Book Description In The Two Prophets to Nineveh, James McCarthy guides readers on an exegetical tour through the prophetical books of Jonah and Nahum. When studied together, Jonah and Nahum offer a panoramic view of the whole character of God. The oceanic breadth of God’s mercy poured out in Jonah stands in stark contrast to […]
Isaiah’s Oratorio
An Appreciation of Isaiah Chapters 24-27
Description
Book Description Chapters 24–27 of Isaiah have been described as his ‘Tale of Two Cities.’ Like Charles Dickens’ well-known novel, they speak of a terrifying urban convulsion which has widespread reverberations. But the difference between them is of course far greater than any similarity. Dickens recorded the ‘Terror’ of the French Revolution that sent shock […]
Description
Book Description One of the great strengths Christians carry through life is our assurance regarding the future. The church’s understanding of eschatology, or the ‘last days,’ goes far deeper than discussions of end-time chronology. Because Christ is risen from the dead, we need never fear death; because he is king over heaven and earth, we […]
Behold My Servant
Sermons on Isaiah 52:13–53:12
Description
Book Description Of the many sermons which Calvin preached on the Book of Isaiah between July 1556 and August 1559, only eleven were published in his lifetime. Seven of them are newly translated here, all on Isaiah’s Fourth Servant Song (Isa. 52:13–53:12). In a series of stunning scenes which have no parallel in prophetic literature, […]
Description
Book Description In the forty years prior to these lectures, Scotland had been favoured with true revivals, for example, at Moulin in 1800; in Skye in 1814; in Arran in 1818; in Lewis in 1834; and at Kilsyth in 1839. This adds a special lustre to this book. It is no theoretical reflection on revival. […]
Our Daily Food
or Portions for the Lord's Household
Description
Book Description James Smith of Cheltenham is perhaps not a name you know. If you have seen it before, it may have been in a few particular places. You may have noticed a collection of devotions called The Believer’s Daily Remembrancer, one of the few productions of his pen still more or less available. You […]
The Christian Race
and other sermons
Description
Book Description When the aged J. C. Ryle announced he was to resign from the office of bishop of Liverpool, his friends encouraged him to publish a selection of sermons as a memorial to his sixty years of ministry, from country parson to diocesan bishop. The resulting selection, chosen by one of Ryle’s colleagues in […]
Unveiling the Cross
Beholding and Proclaiming the Whole Christ
Description
Book Description In Unveiling the Cross, Ross Blackburn examines the Isaiah 6 vision of the Lord, ‘high and lifted up,’ in the light of New Testament revelation. Why did this encounter affect the prophet’s life so radically? What did he understand of the One on the throne? How is this ‘Day of Atonement’ scene connected […]
