Free Stuff Fridays (Ligonier)

This week’s Free Stuff Friday is sponsored by Ligonier Ministries, who also sponsored the blog this week.  Yesterday was Reformation Day, when many Protestants celebrate the sixteenth-century recovery of the biblical gospel. It was while Martin Luther was studying the book of Romans that he rediscovered the doctrine of justification by faith alone. So, today Ligonier Ministries is offering R.C. Sproul’s commentary on Romans as a free ebook for Challies readers. Download your copy to enjoy a verse-by-verse exploration of the rich gospel truths woven throughout Paul’s letter.  In addition, ten Free Friday winners will receive The Power of the Gospel, a new book from R.C. Sproul offering a year of daily devotions through the book of Romans. This new devotional won’t be released until later this year, but you can enter for an opportunity to win your copy today.  One entry per household. Open to residents of U.S. and Canada only. Giveaway ends 11/15/24. Winners will be notified by email.  Loading…See AlsoFree Stuff Fridays (Ligonier Ministries)Free Stuff Fridays (Ligonier Ministries)Free Stuff Fridays (Ligonier Ministries)

Why Not Use a Daily Liturgy for Your Devotions?

Trends come and go. Certain habits or interests rise for a time, wane, then rise again, often at unexpected moments. One of the recent trends I have found particularly surprising and also particularly interesting is the rise (or re-rise, if you prefer) of liturgy. This may be liturgy within formal worship services of the local church or liturgy within times of private worship. Did this trend begin with Douglas McKelvey’s Every Moment Holy series? If it didn’t begin there, his books certainly popularized it. Regardless, over the past few years we have seen a substantial number of books that share liturgies for times of worship.See AlsoNew and Notable Christian Books for October 2024A La Carte (October 31)A La Carte (October 16)

New and Notable Christian Books for October 2024

As October draws to its close, I wanted to ensure you know about at least some of the most notable books it brought our way. I did not see quite the quantity of new books I have seen in some previous months, but there were still some special ones. For each, I’ve provided the publisher’s description to give you a sense of what it’s all about. Hopefully there is something here that’s of interest to you!See AlsoNew and Notable Christians Books from October 2020New and Notable Books for OctoberNew & Notable Books (March 2015)
