Thoughts for Young Men
By J. C. Ryle | Edited by Bennett Rogers
Thoughts for Young Men was originally published in 1888 as a chapter in The Upper Room, and it has become a minor spiritual classic in its own right. It has few equals among the all-too-short list of solid Christian books for young men. Ryle’s insights were derived from more than four decades of pastoral experience, three decades of parenting, and his own experiences as a young man. Ryle always had a heart for young men. He regularly addressed groups like the Young Men’s Christian Association (YMCA) and the Church of England’s Young Men’s Society. By all accounts J.C. Ryle was a “man’s man,” and his Thoughts for Young Men have proven to be both valuable and timeless.
This new edition is designed for devotional reading, small group studies, and one-to-one discipleship. The text has been divided into short readings based on Ryle’s own subheadings and lightly edited to make it more accessible to modern readers. It also includes:
·   Scripture quotations and memory verses from the ESV
·   Information boxes and chapter summaries
·   Reflection questions and suggestions for further reading
·   A discussion guide for group leaders
We’ve also included Daniel the Prophet, a biographical lecture Ryle delivered to a group of young men at the Liverpool YMCA in 1889, which hasn’t been published since that time. This work summarizes and illustrates many of the main points Ryle makes in Thoughts for Young Men.

James Eglinton's short biography from his website:
I am the Meldrum Senior Lecturer in Reformed Theology at New College, the University of Edinburgh. Prior to this, I was a postdoctoral research fellow, and then senior researcher in systematic and historical theology, at the Theologische Universiteit Kampen. I hold undergraduate degrees in law (LLB Hons, Aberdeen) and theology (BTh Dist., Glasgow). My PhD, on the Dutch dogmatician Herman Bavinck, was written at the University of Edinburgh.
I work as a systematic and historical theologian. To date, the bulk of my research and writing has focused on neo-Calvinism, a form of Reformed Christianity that developed between the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries in the Netherlands, and that has continued to evolve in a range of international contexts. My first book, Trinity and Organism, was published by Bloomsbury in 2012. More recently, I was the co-editor of Neo-Calvinism and the French Revolution, with the same publisher. In 2017, my book Herman Bavinck on Preaching and Preachers, was published by Hendrickson. Following this, I worked on Christian Worldview (co-edited and co-translated with Gray Sutanto and Cory Brock), which was published by Crossway. My most recent book, Bavinck: A Critical Biography was published in 2020 by Baker Academic, and won the History and Biography Book of the Year prize at The Gospel Coalition 2020 Book Awards. It is also a finalist in the 2021 ECPA Christian Book Awards.
I serve as Associate Editor of the Journal of Reformed Theology, published by Brill.
I have written for The Times, The Herald, The Scotsman, Christianity Today, Modern Reformation, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, and Nederlands Dagblad, and have taken part in broadcasts on BBC Radio Scotland, BBC Alba and BBC Radio nan Gàidheal.
I have broad interests in Reformed theologies and theologians, with particular foci on Scottish-Dutch Reformed connections, public theology, and the relationship of theology to the phenomenon of multilingualism.
I speak, read and write English, Scottish Gaelic, Dutch and French.

James Hinton with Chance Faulkner

Purchase the Diary of James Hinton edited by Chance Faulkner here: https://hesedandemet.com/product/the-diary-of-james-hinton/ 
The name of the eighteenth-century Baptist minister James Hinton (1761–1823) is not one that is well-known by any standard, even to those who specialize in the study of English Baptist history. Yet, along with his friends Andrew Fuller (1754–1815) and John Ryland, Jr. (1753–1825), Hinton was ‘one of those Baptist leaders who, at the end of the eighteenth century, secured the revival of Baptist life in Britain.’ And like many of his theological persuasion—Hinton was a Dissenter of Calvinistic Baptist convictions—Hinton regarded the keeping of a diary as a spiritual discipline. Hinton’s diary is no longer extant, but large portions of it can be found embedded in a biographical study of Hinton by his son John Howard Hinton (1791–1873). This book contains these portions that have been skillfully re-assembled by Chance Faulkner as a diary.

Deity and Decree with Sam Renihan

Samuel Renihan (Ph.D.) lives in Los Angeles with his wife, Kimberly, and their son, Owen. Sam is pastor and author of various books, including The Mystery Christ, his Covenant & his Kingdom, and From Shadow to Substance: The Federal Theology of the English Particular Baptists (1642-1704)
Deity and Decree: This book is a primer, in three parts, dealing with God's Unity, God's Trinity, and God's Decree.

The Empire of the Holy Spirit: Reflections on biblical and historical patterns of life in the Spirit
By Michael A.G. Haykin
In an interview that he gave in 2011, historian Mark Noll related how an African scholar had once told him that Western historians needed “to get the Holy Spirit back” into their writing of history. Western historians have been so focused on a multitude of ways of explaining the past—via “political systems, strong personalities, military conflicts, economic forces”—that they have had no space for understanding the work of the Holy Spirit in history. This collection of essays on the person and work of the Holy Spirit seeks to show what a proper pneumatological focus can mean for both historical and theological reflection, and why this observation by this African Christian is so vital for the West in the twenty-first century.
