Bavinck on the Christian Life
Following Jesus in Faithful Service
About this book
The importance of Dutch theologian Herman Bavinck to Reformed theology is difficult to overstate. Bavinck's comprehensive four volume systematic theology,Ā Reformed Dogmatics, is a modern classic that has influenced countless pastors and theologians over the past 100 years. InĀ Bavinck on the Christian Life, scholar John Bolt brings the great Dutch theologian's life and work to bear on following Jesus in the 21st century. By practically applying Bavinck's systematic works to the Christian life and looking at the life of the man himself, this book shows the direct connection between robust theology, practical holiness, and personal joy.
John Owen is widely hailed as one of the greatest theologians of all time. His many worksāespecially those encouraging Christians in their struggle against sinācontinue to speak powerfully to readers today, offering much-needed spiritual guidance for following Christ and resisting temptation day in and day out. Starting with an overview of Owen's life, ministry, and historical context, Michael Haykin and Matthew Barrett introduceĀ readers to the pillars of Owen's spiritual life. From exploring his understanding of believers' fellowship with the triune God to highlighting hisĀ teaching on justification, this study invites us to learn about the Christian life from the greatest of the English Puritans.
Part of theĀ Theologians on the Christian LifeĀ series.
