The Reformed Pastor

The Duties and Methods of Labors for the Souls of Men

By: Richard Baxter

Let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. – Galatians 6:9 The Reformed Pastor, the work of Richard Baxter, has been long known and cherished by ministers of various evangelical denominations as among the most inspiring, sacred, and fervent works ever written on the duties and responsibilities of the pastoral office. Many of them have had their own souls and ministries greatly affected as they read the book, much like they might imagine the burning coal from God’s own altar did regarding the lips of the prophet (Isaiah 6:5-6). Although this book is more directly addressed to pastors, the lessons contained in the book may be applied to all Christians to whom God has given the opportunity and means of influencing others for His kingdom.

The Saints' Everlasting Rest

Updated and Abridged

By: Richard Baxter

A Hopeful Puritan Perspective on Suffering and Death In 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. Foreword by Joni Eareckson Tada: Inspiring message from the founder and CEO of the Joni and Friends International Disability Center Great for Personal and Group Study: Each chapter ends with questions for reflection, tackling issues including death, abundant joy, security in Christ, and patience through affliction Modernized Version of a Puritan Classic: Abridged and edited, with a detailed summary of Baxter's life and work, along with short introductions to each chapter Biblical Support for Dealing with Grief or Illness: Explains suffering and death from a Christ-centered perspective, with practical tips for living a heavenly life

A History of Mysticism

By: Richard H. Jones

This book offers a historical overview of mysticism in the world's major religious traditions. Beginning with a chapter on the nature of mystical experiences, A History of Mysticism then turns to a discussion of mysticism's prehistory in shamanism and the early use of psychedelics. The possible role of mystical experiences among early Greek philosophers (including Socrates and Plato) is subsequently addressed, followed by chapters on mysticism in Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Daoism, and a variety of present-day iterations, including New Age mysticism, secular mysticism, and the scientific study of mystical experiences. An appendix covering popular misunderstandings of mystical experiences and mysticism is also included. Written in a clear, accessible style, this book is suitable for students of religion and philosophy as well as general readers interested in mysticism and the world's variety of mystical traditions.

The Reformed Pastor

By: Richard Baxter

What does it really mean to be a Reformed pastor or elder? You may think of holding to a Reformed confession of faith or preaching the doctrines of grace, or such things. And yes, it means all these things. But for Richard Baxter, "a Reformed pastor" does not limit himself to being able to intellectually affirm these if you don't put them into practice in your own life, and in the life of your congregation. A Puritan classic on pastoral ministry that would change you and your church for the glory of God. This book has been originally published in 1656. Current edition has been proofread, typeset for eBook readers, and slightly updated for modern readers. About the author: Richard Baxter (1615-1691) was an English Puritan church leader, theologian, and controversialist. He is best known for his excellent pastoral reputation in his ministry at Kidderminster, where God granted him the grace to see hundreds of conversions and an entire village being transformed by the power of the Gospel. Baxter was a bit controversial among Calvinists, because of his view on repentance, nevertheless he preached a biblical Gospel. Richard Baxter died on December 8, 1691.

Streams of Living Water

Essential Practices from the Six Great Traditions of Christian Faith

By: Richard J. Foster

The author of the bestselling celebration of discipline explores the great traditions of Christian spirituality and their role in spiritual renewal today. In this landmark work, Foster examines the "streams of living water" –– the six dimensions of faith and practice that define Christian tradition. He lifts up the enduring character of each tradition and shows how a variety of practices, from individual study and retreat to disciplines of service and community, are all essential elements of growth and maturity. Foster examines the unique contributions of each of these traditions and offers as examples the inspiring stories of faithful people whose lives defined each of these "streams.

Anglican and Evangelical?

Anglican and Evangelical?

By: Richard Turnbull

At a time when Anglicans and Evangelicals seem to be increasingly polarized rather than part of the same tradition, an Evangelical Anglican takes a fresh look at the historical and contemporary expressions of each to assess their distinctive standpoints, to show how much common ground they share and to examine what this means for the church today. Practicing Anglicans who consider themselves on one or the other side of the debate, as well as those who would ally themselves with both traditions, will welcome this new appraisal with its insight into meeting points and mutual goals. This is a vital contribution for all who are concerned to arrest the perception, whatever the reality, of the Anglican church's inexorable decline.
