This short book brings together seven such sermons, in which McCheyne expounds the glories of life in Christ. Shorter and more easily digestible than some of his written works, but lacking none of the biblical depth, these sermons make for powerful devotional material.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eMcCheyne drives home the glory, the blessedness, the sheer joy of truly knowing God in Christ, of delighting in His ways, His Word, His holiness.\u003c\/p\u003e -- D. A. Carson\t(Emeritus Professor of New Testament, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, Deerfield, Illinois)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eMcCheyne weeds out all the false paths to joy, even many Christian ones, and invites you to the Well Himself, Jesus Christ. This book is a must read as we easily become distracted from Jesus and the gospel.\u003c\/p\u003e -- Nathan Kline\t(Senior Pastor, Friendly Hills Church, Jamestown, North Carolina)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e In the absence of a recording device from the 1830s when McCheyne was minister, these pages provide the next best thing – the text of several sermons McCheyne prepared for the people he loved so dearly. They bear all the hallmarks of all his preaching – simplicity, clarity, directness, earnestness, Christ–centredness, and in addition a certain pathos and poetic beauty. No matter what age or stage of the Christian life you may have reached, you will find yourself spiritually nourished and drawn to Christ by what you read here.\u003c\/p\u003e -- Sinclair B. Ferguson\t(Chancellor’s Professor of Systematic Theology, Reformed Theological Seminary, Jackson, Mississippi)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eRobert Murray M'Cheyne is one of my heroes. He only lived until 29 and was only in the ministry for a little over seven years. But in that short time he taught many (and continues to teach through his books) that our life in Christ is far more important than anything this world has to offer. In this short but powerful book, he reminds us that our joy can only be found in Christ. Much like his other works and those of his contemporaries in 19th century Scotland, this book will pierce your heart and convict your soul that nothing short of pursuing the King of kings in all things will fill you with gladness. \u003c\/p\u003e -- Dave Furman\t(Senior Pastor, Redeemer Church of Dubai, Dubai and Author of \u003ci\u003e'Being There'\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003e'Kiss the Wave'\u003c\/i\u003e)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs you would expect from Robert Murray McCheyne, this book is thoroughly theological and profoundly pastoral. He mines deep and then displays sparkling gospel gems on every page. This is a book that should be kept close and read often.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e -- Susan Hunt\t(Pastor’s wife, former Director of Women’s Ministry for the PCA)","brand":"Christian Focus Publications Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51456094175575,"sku":"9781527101487","price":13.45,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781527101487.jpg?v=1755033782","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/the-believer-s-joy-9781527101487","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
