New Release Books by Gene Fedele

Practical Religion, by J. C. Ryle (1816-1900), was first published in 1878 and is renowned as a theological and apologetic Christian "classic"--esteemed for its clear, profound and penetrating narrative on the practice of genuine Christian living. Within its pages, Ryle masterfully unfolds practical biblical truths in a series of treatises, or "papers" as he calls them, each written to address a critical aspect of where personal faith in Christ and the practice of that faith in holy living unite and are essential for Christian growth and effectiveness as a witness for Christ in the world. Ryle exposes hypocrisy and nominalism in religion, or "Churchianity" as he calls it, which was as systemic in his day as it is today. His poignant narrative appeals to the Church as well as to individuals who profess to be Christians--a call to self-examination in all things, and a return to sound Biblical truths seriously and practically applied in every aspect of Christian life. Some of the subjects addressed include: Self-Inquiry, Reality, Prayer, Bible Reading, Zeal, Formality, The World, Sickness, Riches and Poverty, Eternity, among others. Ryle's unique style penetrates the heart and challenges the mind of its readers and is not for the faint of heart--but is designed for those who genuinely and humbly seek a deeper abiding, surrendered life in Christ. No wonder his equally renowned contemporary English minister, Charles Spurgeon, called him "an evangelical champion. One of the bravest and best of men." J. C. (John Charles) Ryle was the first Bishop of Liverpool, and one of the most influential evangelical ministers and writers of the nineteenth century. Ryle quotes from Practical Religion: "Real" religion is not mere show, and pretense, and skin-deep feeling, and temporary profession, and outside work. It is something inward, solid, substantial, intrinsic, living, lasting. A lack of reality is a striking feature of a vast amount of religion in the present day. The subject is of deep importance in every age. There has never been a time, since the Church of Christ was founded, when there has not been a vast amount of unreality and mere nominal religion among professing Christians. I am sure it is the case in the present day - It is not the Christianity of Peter, and James, and John, and Paul. It is Churchianity - and nothing more!

The Life of Our Lord "I have always striven in my writings to express veneration for the life and lessons of our Saviour, because I feel it; and because I rewrote that history for my children."-Charles Dickens The Gospel Story of Jesus Christ revealed in the immutable words and style of one of the world's greatest authors. In this extraordinary Christian classic work, The Life of Our Lord, the greatest novelist unfolds the greatest story about the greatest person the world has ever known. This little known "lost book" of Charles Dickens was guarded as a sacred family secret for 85 years since it was first handwritten for his children in 1849, and hidden from public eye, until the Dickens family permitted it to be published in 1934. The Life of Our Lord is Charles Dickens' only non-fiction writing, and the one closest to his heart. It is a unique and special book that reflects Dickens' love of God and faith in Jesus Christ. With humility and adoration, the editors of Bridge Logos add this precious book to the distinguished Pure Gold Classics collection in anticipation and expectation that young and old alike will be richly blessed by the simplicity and warmth of the story of the life of our Saviour that Dickens left as a blessing to the world and a glorious testimony of his own personal relationship with the Lord. "The Life of Our Lord is a brief, powerful exposé on the life of Christ that compels believers to passionately pursue Him and invites unbelievers to see the relentless love of God and free gift of eternal life Jesus offers to those that would place their faith and trust in Him. This Dickens classic is a legacy work of art with greater value than any wealthy estate that must be passed down to your posterity." -Dr. Rollan Roberts II, CEO, Courageous! and founder, Transform Africa "Gene Fedele uncovers a hidden literary treasure of Charles Dickens-The Life of Our Lord. With careful detail and beautiful prose readers will be drawn into the greatest story ever told by a master storyteller.

Within its pages, the great novelist unfolds the Gospel message of Jesus Christ, hand-written in the beautiful "Dickensian" prose the world has come to adore, specifically for his own children during their earlier years. This biographical sketch is not intended as a detailed chronology of the author's life and writings, but instead is primarily a reflection on the heart of the man and the primary motivation behind his great literary works--his faith in Christ and his love for his fellow man. With humility and adoration, we add this precious book to the distinguished Pure Gold Classics collection in anticipation and expectation that young and old alike will be richly blessed by the simplicity and warmth of the story of the life of our Savior that Dickens left as a blessing to the world and a glorious testimony of his own personal relationship with the Lord.
