"The Loveliness of Christ," contains the essay by the title name plus several letters Rutherford wrote. Since his death in 1661, the writings and letters of Rutherford have been an inspiration to many--including the highly esteemed evangelist, Charles Spurgeon. In Spurgeon's words, "when we are dead and gone let the world know that Spurgeon held Rutherford's letters to be the nearest thing to inspiration that can be found in the writings of mere men." Rutherford, like all humans, grappled with sin and faced tribulations. Even in the midst of his own struggles, however, Rutherford became a beacon, revealing the loveliness of Jesus Christ. An old English merchant and contemporary of Rutherford explained the transformative impact of encountering Rutherford this way: "I came to Irvine, and heard a well-favored, proper old man [David Dickson] with a long beard, and that man showed me all my heart. Then I went to St. Andrews, where I heard a sweet, majestic-looking man [Robert Blair], and he showed me the majesty of God. After him I heard a little, fair man [Rutherford], and he showed me the loveliness of Christ." Rutherford's personality was a blend of godliness, humility, and strong emotions, leading to occasional outbursts and challenges in his interactions. Acknowledging his own temperament, he once confessed to David Dickson, "I am made of extremes." Despite bouts of depression, Rutherford's experiences became a divine tool, shaping him into a source of comfort for fellow believers in times of suffering. "The Loveliness of Christ" is a testament to the transformative power of a flawed yet deeply devoted soul. Rutherford's letters not only offer profound insights into the Christian journey but also showcase the loveliness of Christ that transcends human imperfections.

Life Is Never Mainly About Love and Marriage. So Learn to Live and Date for More. Many of you grew up assuming that marriage would meet all of your needs and unlock God's purposes for you. But God has far more planned for you than your future marriage. Not Yet Married is not about waiting quietly in the corner of the world for God to bring you "the one," but about inspiring you to live and date for more now. If you follow Jesus, the search for a spouse is no longer a pursuit of the perfect person, but a pursuit of more of God. He will likely write a love story for you different than the one you would write for yourself, but that's because he loves you and knows how to write a better story. This book was written to help you find real hope, happiness, and purpose in your not-yet-married life.

This comprehensive collection showcases Oscar Wilde's brilliant storytelling skills and his amazing stylistic versatility, ranging from fairy tales and ghost stories to detective yarns and comedies of manners. It includes the complete texts of "The Happy Prince and Other Tales," "A House of Pomegranates," "Lord Arthur Savile's Crime and Other Stories," "Poems in Prose," and the critical essay "The Portrait of Mr. W. H." Originally published in the late 1880s and early 1890s, these tales predate Wilde's fame as a dramatist. When he wrote them, he was best known among fashionable London society as a drawing-room raconteur. Many of the character types now familiar from his comedies first emerged in these stories, along with his gifted uses of parody, melodrama, paradox, and irony. Even more significantly, they reflect the author's preoccupation with opposites—idealistic love and desire, art and life, sincerity and artifice, innocence and sin, altruism and greed, and honesty and deceit—offering captivating expressions of the themes that dominated Wilde's life and thought.
