Welcome to my blog. I mostly write about Christian Living, but I enjoy the Kentucky Wildcats, New Orleans Saints, and a good cup of coffee.
All in book reviews
In this review I talk about one of my favorite resources from P&R Publishing. These devotionals will help you biblically counsel your heart. They are an amazing resource and I highly recommend checking them out.
To say I was a little excited for this book’s release would be an understatement. I have listened on and off to the Ask Pastor John Podcast for quite some time. Certainly longer than I can remember.
I love liturgy. The order and rhythm of it is beneficial to the soul. I also love Christmas. Advent devotionals changed my life. They helped make my Christmas more meaningful. Like the author, Jonathan Gibson, I have recently found them leaving something to be desired.
I love Biblical Theology. It’s a discipline I’ve become pretty passionate about. I think it helps us see the Bible more clearly and understand it more fully. I’ve been working to get my hands on more and more biblical theology resources. I was really excited to check out this new Biblical Theology by Andreas Kostenberger and Gregory Goswell offered by Crossway.
Known as “The Heavenly Doctor”, Richard Sibbes is a Puritan writer that all Christians would do well to know and benefit from.
I love books for kids that have a Christian message. It is even better when these books are well done.
It’s no secret I’m a big fan of the Puritans. We all know about many of the Puritan men and their writings, but what about the women? When I saw this book title come across my screen I knew I had to check it out. If I’m honest, I hadn’t even considered Puritan women before so I’m really glad that Jenny-Lyn de Klerk put this book together!
Crossway has taken up the mantle to publish The Complete Works of John Owen. They’re starting with Volume 7, The Holy Spirit — The Helper. This collection will include 40 volumes and is going to be released over a six year span.
Could it be!? One of my favorite authors has released an Advent book! Jared C. Wilson writes in a way that resonates with me. I love the season of Advent. It literally changed my life and made my Christmases so much more focused and intentional. To get to celebrate Advent with Jared C. is more than I could have asked for!
I love prayer books. I think it is because I always need more help with prayer. Several books of Puritan prayers have been released and every time I see a new one I want to check it out. The latest offering is called Into His Presence and it has been edited and arranged by Tim Chester and published by The Good Book Company. As soon as I saw it I knew it was a must have.
Discovering the celebration of Advent changed my life. That’s no joke. I can’t count how many times we hit the Christmas season, things got busy, and I find myself sitting on Christmas day thinking, “That’s it? It’s here and about to be over? I feel like I forgot to focus on Jesus.” I would feel so discouraged and guilty. Advent helped my Christmas season become much more focused on Christ.
The letter of Romans in our Bibles is so heavy. We could spend the rest of our lives in this book and never exhaust the riches found in it. Many books have been written regarding it. John Piper spent eight years and 225 sermons preaching through Romans. There are thick commentaries and thinner commentaries written on examining it. The book I’m reviewing today by Andrew David Naselli is the latter.
