CHARLES HADDON SPURGEON ON READING
'As the apostle says to Timothy, so also he says to everyone, 'Give yourself to reading.' He who will not use the thoughts of other men's brains proves that he has no brains of his own. You need to read. Renounce as much as you will all light literature, but study as much as possible sound theological works, especially the Puritanic writers, and expositions of the Bible. The best way for you to spend your leisure is to be either reading or praying.'

“ Six volumes of Purtian sermons. ” Thanks for the comment and the readings Thomas! These Puritan sermons, the "Morning Exercises at Cripplegate," are available in six volumes at http://www.swrb.com/catalog/l. htm. These books include sermons by John Owen, Thomas Watson, Thomas Manton, Matthew Poole, Richard Baxter, William Greenhill, James Janeway, Edmund Calamy, Thomas Vincent and many others. Volumes vary in length from 624 to 804 pages and cover a great number of topics that are essential to the Puritan view of God, the world and the Christian life. The Preface notes, "This celebrated collection of useful and orthodox theology consists... of practical as well as doctrinal discourses, preached by some of the most eminent divines of the 17th century, and published at irregular intervals between the years 1660 and 1691." Volume six, "The Morning Exercises against Popery; or the principal Errors of the Church of Rome detected and confuted... has always been deemed a standard book on that great controversy," which even in that day was "recently revived."

“ Great Sermon! ” Hi folks, I think this is the right place to let you guys know about the message “A call to young people”. It’s a must hear for any Christian but in particular young people. If anyone is serious about their faith then you will find this pleasing to the soul but also very challenging, rebuking and will stir you up and give you a renewed vision for the Lord. I can’t emphasise it enough. My pastor Gerard Hemmings gave the message at my church in London (England) a few month back but we have put it up on sermon audio along with others including testimonies of various people at our church on Video called ‘Real People Real Lives’ and another called ‘There must be more to life than this’. I really hope that it will be a blessing to many of you as it has been to others already.
