Puritan Papers: 1956-1959 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780875524665)

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 principles 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
