Andrew Ballitch, J. Stephen Yuille

'The Wholesome Doctrine of the Gospel' familiarizes readers with one of England's most influential theologians, William Perkins. In the opening biographical sketch, Andrew S. Ballitch and J. Stephen Yuille give an overview of Pekins's life, theology, and piety. Then, in thirty-two excerpts, readers learn about the relationship between faith and love from Perkins himself as he explains the foundational 'grounds of doctrine to be believed and grounds of doctrine to be practiced.' Rather than treating theology as a subject for mere academic debate, Perkins calls for true Christian devotion that moves beyond intellectual assent to heartfelt dedication to Christ.

God is Good - Revised Second...

Margaret Liu Collins

God is Good is the story of the transformational power of faith in our everyday lives. While the world portrays God as wrathful and scolding, our Heavenly Father is the most loving kind of father. He wants for all of His children to live in safety, joy, health, and prosperity, free of worry, sickness, and sorrow.  
Margaret Liu Collins was born in China during a time of wartime strife, born a girl in a culture that values males, and later found herself in a marriage filled with ridicule and abuse with two young children to care for. By learning to seek, recognize, and heed God's voice, she was able to welcome the abundance that God offered: a life of spiritual riches, financial abundance, exuberant health, and loving relationships. All of this came about, not because of any exceptional qualities of her own, but because God is Good.
