Teach Me to Feel by Courtney Reissig

Teach Me to Feel by Courtney Reissig

book reviews

The Psalms are such an incredible book of the Bible. People use Psalms for all kinds of things. The wide range of emotions help us sing and pray no matter what season of life we may find ourselves in. They comfort us and let us know we aren’t alone. Sometimes they ground us in the truth amidst our chaotic feelings. Courtney Reissig says, “We need to learn how to feel Christianly” and in her new book, Teach Me to Feel: Worshiping Through the Psalms in Every Season of Life, she is going to show you how the Psalms help you do just that.

The Collected Works of John Piper

The Collected Works of John Piper

There are no words to describe the huge blessing John Piper has been to the global church. I was first introduced to Piper through the Passion college ministry run by Louie Giglio. I then got a copy of Desiring God and it turned my world upside down. I remember reading it late into the night in my parents basement and waking up in the floor with the book still open in front of me. I know there are thousands or more who have stories they could share about the way Piper has impacted them.

Knowing and Enjoying God by Tim Challies and Jules Koblun

book reviews, devotional

Although this book is a collection of beautiful images, it is laid out intentionally. In the Introduction, Challies speaks of this book being structured around “the means of grace.” He goes on to say, “The means of grace are the habits we engage in through which we speak to God and he speaks to us, through which we listen to God and he listens to us.” Thus they are organized with reading the Bible, prayer, and gathering as the local church in mind.

I’ve enjoyed every book I’ve read in the 9Marks Building Healthy Churches series. The newest offering, Corporate Worship by Matt Merker, is no exception. Merker has given both church leaders and church members a very helpful tool with this work. This volume is short, but packed with a lot of great information.

Marriage by Paul David Tripp

book reviews, marriage

Marriage by Paul David Tripp is an updated and repackaged version of his previous book What Did You Expect? In the new version, the title and cover have changed and there are two new chapters. Tripp says in the Preface to the 2021 edition that the older title seemed to communicate that the book was about “misguided or failed marriage expectations” when in reality the book is actually about “six marriage commitments that result from looking at marriage through the lens of the gospel of Jesus Christ.” The new edition intends to bring those commitments to the forefront. After reading this book, I think this was a great choice and a helpful rebrand.

Gospel Driven Ministry by Jared C. Wilson: A Book Review

Gospel Driven Ministry by Jared C. Wilson: A Book Review

book reviews, ministry

I think Jared C. Wilson is one of the best Christian writers of my time. The dude never seems to run out of book ideas and I’ve found all of them to be engaging and helpful. I mean, he’s the author in residence of Midwestern Seminary if that tells you anything! He not only cranks out books, but also writes a plethora of articles and podcasts. His newest book, Gospel Driven Ministry, is no exception when it comes to quality.

Providence by John Piper

Providence by John Piper

book reviews

John Piper has written a lot of books, but he declares Providence to be his magnum opus. In it, he has written 711 pages about the providence of God—a term that he admits isn’t in the Bible, but takes great pains to define as prove scripturally. If you could only read one John Piper book, should it be Providence? Is it his most important work?

The Valley of Vision Comparison

I've been a long time lover of the Valley of Vision. The Lord has used this collection of Puritan Prayers to encourage me, disciple me, and aid in my own prayer life. For a long time, the Valley of Vision only came in paperback or bonded leather, but recently Banner of Truth released this collection of prayers in both genuine leather and goatskin leather. Today I'm bringing you a comparison of these new editions and one old one.

The Puritan Classics Box Set

The Puritan Classics Box Set

book reviews, puritans

I’m once again partnering with my good friends at Westminster Books to bring you a really exciting review today. The Puritans have written works that contain a treasure trove of information. Vast riches can be found within their pages. Countless people have benefited greatly from their works. For the longest time, these have come in the form of Puritan Paperbacks, but now many of the classic works of the Puritans have been bound in beautiful hardcover books and placed in a box set. I’ll go ahead and say straight up that if you value Puritan literature, you’re going to want this box set.

I’ve gotten to the point where I’m receiving so many books that I can’t possibly read them all. In this post, I want to highlight some publishers and books that you should be paying attention to and that I think will make an impact in your life in one way or another. I received complimentary copies of these books from the publishers, but they are books I was specifically interested in and think you should be paying attention to as well.
