Puritan Papers: 1956-1959, Vol. 1
Publisher's Description
J. I. Packer, D. M. Lloyd-Jones, Iain Murray, and Ernest Kevan are among the distinguished contributors to this compilation of papers on a wide range of topics pertaining to Puritan and Reformed teaching, piety, and life. This volume, the first in a series, captures the priniples and passion of Puritan belief as presented in the Puritan and Reformed Studies Conferences of 1956-1959.
The twenty-three papers gathered here are, by design, “practical and constructive, not merely academic,” says Packer, and therefore helpful to pastors as well as the whole church. Topics include
- Interpreting Scripture
- Christian experience
- Worship
- The Lord's Day
- The life and work of a minister
- Dealing with troubled souls
- The law and the covenants
- Discipline
- Revival
324 Pages

Endorsements (${ productEndorsements.length })
“Of value not only to students of history and theology but to all pastors and members of churches.... We eagerly look forward to the publication of more past conference papers in this format.”
Evangelical Times
“[These studies] are constructive, and beneficial not only for pastors but for all God's covenant people.”
Christian Renewal
“The papers are of inherent interest and value to all who already appreciate the Puritans.... [This] volume, and no doubt its successors, would be an ideal introduction for anyone to whom the Puritans are unknown. Warmly recommended.”
