   Now, where should you start? Someone recently asked me to make a list of some of the books I have in mind that are substance, not suds. Let me stress at the outset that I don’t think reading manybooks is important — not for the average person anyway. Reading good books — solid books, non-sudsy books, substantial books — is really important. And rea...

   This is the place to make sure that John Owen gets included. After Jonathan Edwards, outside the Bible, no one has fed my soul more deeply than this greatest Puritan writer who died in 1683.

   John Bunyan’s The Pilgrim’s Progress has sold more books than any other book outside the Bible. Historically, Pilgrim’s Progressis off-the-charts helpful and influential.

But our lives are short, and God has been merciful to give u...

   Is your sin mainly what you do or don't do?

   • So you may lay to rest forever the notion that your sin is mainly what you do or don’t do. It’s not mainly what you do. It is mainly who you are—until you are a new creature in Christ. And even then, for us who are born of God, it is an ever-present, indwelling enemy to be put to death every day by the Spirit (Romans 8:13).
