Lass mich dir zwei Dinge sagen: 1. Bibellesen ist harte Arbeit. 2. Es lohnt sich auf jeden Fall. Die meisten Christen wissen, dass sie die Bibel lesen sollten; sie wissen, dass die Bibel sie weise macht und ihr Wachstum fördert. Viele haben es auch versucht, die Bibel täglich zu lesen und sogar zu studieren. Doch irgendwann erschien es ihnen zu schwer, und sie gaben auf. Wie bekomme ich Freude am Bibellesen? Hier ist ein kleines Buch, das weise Richtlinien dafür enthält, wie man das wichtigste Buch der Welt lesen sollte. Wende sie an, und du wirst feststellen, dass die Bibel dein Leben verändert. Und du wirst sie lieben und die Zeit mit ihr schätzen. Bibellesen ist harte Arbeit, aber – sie ist es wert.

Through the simple words of Psalm 23, David revealed a glorious and comforting knowledge of his covenantal Lord, pictured vividly as his gracious Shepherd and Host. We easily recite this psalm, but it describes an experience nothing less than a spiritual Holy of Holies. Yet God calls sinners to enter here by faith and walk with Him through all of life. Joel Beeke's exposition of the psalm illuminates the riches of the Reformed experiential doctrines of salvation and sanctification. The book aims, by God's grace, to help readers to grow in their understanding of God's love for His elect people, their submissive embrace of His purposes, and their glad contentment through life's distressing journey until they dwell in the house of the Lord forever.'

Now, A Puritan Theology Study Guide, which has been requested by many, can assist you in mining the riches of this volume, enabling you to wed the doctrines and practice of the Christian more closely in your own life, so as to glorify the triune God and be more conformed to Christ in your daily walk with God. This study guide will more than repay its careful usage.

"Biographical sketches of evangelical leaders from the eighteenth to the twentieth century"--

This book is packed with practical guidance on how to evangelize covenant children and how, by God’s grace, to make the home “a nursery for heaven.” After showing that Christians today fail to understand the role of the covenant in their children’s lives, Joel R. Beeke offers insight on the covenant relationship between God and man, and its implications for home and family. He then teaches parents how to instruct their children in the gospel, with detailed guidelines on how to use prayer, family worship, teaching, conversation, and mentoring to evangelize children.
