The Lord's Work in the Lord's Way and No Little People (Crossway Short Classics)
A Collection of Sermons on Christian Leadership from Theologian Francis A. Schaeffer
Christians serving the Lord can fall into two traps: depending too heavily on their own power or underestimating their God-given purpose. In this collection of classic sermons, renowned theologian and philosopher Francis A. Schaeffer teaches believers how to rely on the Holy Spirit--not personal effort or status--in matters of service and leadership.
This short book includes an excerpt from Schaeffer's sermon, "The Lord's Work in the Lord's Way," plus 2 sermons from the book No Little People. Covering topics including humility and servanthood, Christian office, spiritual battles, and trusting God's methods, Schaeffer encourages pastors, students, and church members to live as consecrated people, working humbly for God's approval instead of human praise.
- Classic Yet Timely Messages: Powerfully addresses common issues for the church, including spiritual pride, humanism, and how to live as consecrated people
- Perfect Gift for Students and Pastors: Motivates those serving in ministry to keep a Christ-centered perspective
- Accessible Introduction to the Thought of Francis Schaeffer: With a foreword by Ray Ortlund Jr., this inspiring collection introduces modern audiences to Schaeffer's work
Endorsements (${ productEndorsements.length })
“[Schaeffer] lived daring to believe that God was the primary reality at L’Abri in Switzerland and wherever his ministry took him around the world. And my generation, at that time in college, was captivated. His lectures were brilliant and his persona magnetic. But it was all traceable to his life with Christ in prayer, in faith, in repentance, leaning into the Lord for whatever each moment required”

“True ‘classics’ are more than timeless; they are works of exceptional insight and power. These beautiful booklets put before us works that fully deserve the label. Wise, Christ-centered, and full of gospel comfort, they are treasures that will enlarge both the mind and the soul of all who heed them.”

“We followers of Christ are not always good these days at hearing the wisdom of godly voices from the past. This series of historic writings provides an accessible, beautiful way for us to listen. You can read one of these small treasures in an hour—and the benefits will be large. These writers call us to gospel truth and gospel life in Christ. Hearing their voices is good for our souls.”
