Free Stuff Fridays

Giveaways / Free Stuff Fridays Collection cover image

This week’s Free Stuff Fridays is sponsored by Christian Focus and they are offering a selection of brand new books for you, including one by John Piper you haven’t even heard of yet. They have five prize packages to give away and each of them will contain the following three books:

Five Points PiperFive Points by John Piper. “Piper says he wrote this book from his own longing to know God and enjoy God. “Yes, the more you know him and love him and trust him, the more you long to know him,” Imagine being able to chat over a meal with John Piper about the five points of Calvinism. That’s pretty much what you get in this book: a clear statement of these life-changing truths delivered with warm pastoral sensitivity in a conversational style. You won’t find yourself being browbeaten. Instead, you’ll find yourself invited to marvel at God’s wonderful grace. The only thing missing is the meal.” (Tim Chester ~ Co-Director of the Porterbrook Network and pastor of the Crowded House, Sheffield)

Living By Revealed TruthLiving By Revealed Truth by Tom Nettles. “Tom Nettles has spent more than 15 years working on this magisterial biography of Charles Haddon Spurgeon, a mountain – a massive figure on the evangelical landscape. Nettles takes us into the heart of Charles Spurgeon’s conviction and his pastoral theology. This is a book that will encourage, educate, and bless its readers. More than merely a biography. Fresh and unique, this book will be enjoyable to laymen, profitable to pastors, and indispensable for scholars. Nettles’ volume now takes an honoured place among the most valuable of all resources pertaining to the Prince of Preachers.” (Don Whitney ~ Associate Professor of Biblical Spirituality, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Louisville, Kentucky)

Isaac WattsIsaac Watts by Graham Beynon. “Isaac Watts one of the best-known Hymn-Writers in history, who wrote one of the most famous hymns in history “When I survey the Wondrous Cross”. Brought up in a non-conformist church and family, Isaac Watts knew what it was to be a pastor whilst also battling prolonged periods of illness. Leading a life, that like us all, was not without difficulty or controversy, he was able to write Hymns of almost unparalleled depth and beauty, though they were often remained unappreciated by his own congregation. This fascinating study considers his life, writings and continuing influence on Christians today, in a way that will illuminate and inspire.”

  • Water Glass

    The Deepest Thirst of All

    The God who created us formed us in such a way that we are not meant to exist apart from him. To live apart from God is the spiritual equivalent of trying to live without food and water. It will lead only to weakness, pain, and death.
