D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones once said that what the church needs to do most all is “to begin herself to live the Christian life. If she did that, men and women would be crowding into our buildings. They would say, ‘What is the secret of this?’” As Christians, one of our greatest needs is for the Spirit of God to cultivate biblical godliness in us in order to put the beauty of Christ on display through us, all to the glory of the triune God. With this goal in mind, this series of booklets treats matters vital to Christian experience at a basic level. Each booklet addresses a specific question in order to inform the mind, warm the affections, and transform the whole person by the Spirit’s grace, so that the church may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior in all things.
Endorsement
“Although it appears we are in the midst of a deluge of sexual immorality inciting the unwary heart to all types of sexual lust and perversion, lust has been regnant in the human heart ever since the fall of Adam and Eve. And the Bible has much to say about it: how to fight it and how, in the words of the fourth membership vow in the Orthodox Presbyterian Church, to “put to death your sinful deeds and desires.” Ryan McGraw helpfully shows us the biblical wisdom regarding lust in general and sexual lust in particular. He also draws from one of the most important treatises on how to kill sin penned by the great Puritan physician of the heart, John Owen, who originally preached it to teenagers at Oxford University. Pithy and piquant, may this booklet do much good in encouraging holy living.” — Michael A. G. Haykin, professor of church history and biblical spirituality, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary

As a little girl, Frances (Fanny) loved to climb trees, enjoy the countryside and to run about with her spaniel. The mountains of Switzerland inspired her and she loved hiking on the steep slopes. She became a hymn writer and singer, longing to share the love of her Saviour. Books flowed from her pen at a later stage, often beginning as bedtime stories for her nephews and nieces.

Our children should be able to internalize and apply the principles found in the Book of Proverbs from their earliest years. If our children will be rooted in all 1,000-plus lessons found in Proverbs before they reach adulthood, they should begin to work through them as early as 8 or 9 years of age.

Many churches have an official process to join their membership. Is this really a biblical practice? The authors show that the Bible assumes the necessity of formal church membership so that we can fulfill the commands and apply the promises given to the church. Clearly and carefully, and answering contemporary objections along the way, the authors make the biblical case that God desires the members of His heavenly kingdom to join with the earthly society that reflects it—Christ’s body, the church.
