Members Reviews:
critical book for all Christians
I read it on Kindle the first time, and the 1651 language is slow going, but virtually every sentence is pure gold for the believer. Listening to it on audio book was even better. Derek's British accent is a perfect fit and adds a pleasant nuance. His reading is excellent, and I got even more out of the book listening to it. I look forward to going through it many more times in the coming years.
Discontentedness is at an all time high in our modern era, and Christians are struggling with it as much as secular folks. This book provides a solid theological set of reasons why that occurs, and the solutions. It is rock solid doctrinally, and inspires an honest and critical look inward at our true motivations and thought processes. You will be challenged.
Very Content with the performance.
This is a fantastic book, very difficult to apply but ought to be sought after by those who call themselves Christians.
Great counsel and encouragement
A Puritan classic full of heart and meaty reality. It is so easy to be discontent especially when we will not face our sin and weakness. What a helpful and compassionate book this is. I enjoyed the quaint illustrations, particularly about children, from a man who clearly loved his family and congregation. Highly recommended.
Hits the mark. Reveals how contentment is gained.
Worth the hard work of listening to and comprehending old English. Many gems are in here.
