Free Stuff Fridays

This week’s Free Stuff Fridays is sponsored by Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. There will be 5 winners this week, and each winner will receive a great prize: a set of the collector’s edition Sermons of Charles Spurgeon. Originally published in 1883 in ten volumes, this handsome 1996 reprinting by Baker Books combines the collection into 5 volumes in hunter green hardback with gold embossing. (Each of the 5 new volumes contains 2 of the original 1883 volumes.) This collection would make an excellent addition to any Christian family or leader’s library.

    God Takes Us Into His Confidence

    Here is another Sunday devotional—a brief thought to orient your heart toward the Lord. God takes the initiative in establishing relationship by reaching out to helpless humanity.

  • Ask Pastor John

    Ask Pastor John

Books based on sermons, for example, can often be pretty disappointing—a powerful sermon at a conference can make a bland chapter in a…
