It is the Holy Spirit who convicts us of sin, who makes us feel how good and righteous, and just and patient God is, and how guilty we are, and how unfit for Heaven, and how near to Hell. It is the Holy Spirit who leads us to true repentance and confession... -from "Preparing His House" This joyful work of devotion and "experiential" religion is part testimony, part prayer book. The author, a preacher who was instrumental in the development of the theology of the Salvation Army, the Protestant evangelical organization, relates stories of the power of the Holy Spirit to transform lives and save souls, and offers meditations, excerpts from Scripture, on His authority. First published in 1906, this is an invaluable volume for anyone seeking to understand the history and ideology of this important Christian sect. American preacher SAMUEL LOGAN BRENGLE (1860-1936) was instrumental in the development of the theology of the Salvation Army. He is also the author of Heart Talks on Holiness (1897), The Way of Holiness (1902), Love Slaves (1923), and Resurrection Life and Power (1925).

Endorsed by Justin Taylor, Donald Whitney, and others, Water of the Word is a prayer-book that has enriched thousands of marriages, helping husbands discover the power of praying God's Word for their wives. Be a part of the scripture-prayer movement, and join others in reaping the benefits for your own love story. "Blessed is the wife whose husband offers prayers on her behalf such as those in this book." -DONALD S. WHITNEY, author of "Spiritual Disciplines for the Christian Life" "A great idea and a most helpful and welcome book!" -JUSTIN TAYLOR, The Gospel Coalition, Crossway senior vice president and publisher By combining the two greatest powers on earth-scripture and prayer-Andrew Case not only shows husbands how to pray for our wives, but teaches us how to read scripture: prayerfully. This book is a gold mine. -MIKE MASON, Bestselling author of "The Mystery of Marriage" "For husbands, or men desiring to fill God's noble calling to love their wives as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her, Water of the Word provides not only a biblical framework, replete with verses to focus one's attention and catalyze one's spiritual thinking, but also beautiful prose to stir the soul of devotional prayer. More than a guidebook, it is rather a springboard to a deepening love relationship with God and with one's wife. I have used this book personally, as well as for a devotional guide for the Marriage Enrichment class here at Southern Seminary. A book to savor, reflect on, and then offer prayers from a pure heart and clear conscience." -WILLIAM R. CUTRER M.D., author of "Sexual Intimacy in Marriage" "Andrew Case has provided an ingenious and glorious tool for Christian husbands, one that has the potential of binding husbands and wives ever closer together while these prayers seek more intimate relationship between their wives and their God. By employing themes, principles, promises, and pleas from Scripture itself, Case has crafted hundreds of rich and meaningful prayers that any and every Christian husband can pray for his own wife. What power and insight one finds in these prayers, along with beauty and variety. Husbands here are led not only into specific prayers for their wives that focus on the central and most significant needs they have as women, but they are led also to cultivate better the habit of praying for their wives, and through this assisting the spiritual growth of those closest to them in all of life." -BRUCE A. WARE, Professor of Christian Theology, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary

Precious Bible Promises brings together select passages of the Bible with the succinct analysis of preacher, scholar and doctor of divinity Samuel Clarke. A classic text for Bible study, and a perfect introduction to the lessons of the Bible for the uninitiated, Precious Bible Promises contains hundreds of quotations which inspire faith. Designed as a handbook to help with life's myriad trials and troubles, this book is certain to provide peace of mind and comfort with any problems to surface. Samuel Clarke spent his life in the service of the Anglican ministry. His studied readings of the Bible, combined with philosophical insights that impressed the scholarly establishment of England, made his books popular during and after his lifetime. Perhaps the most famous event in Clarke's life were the Boyle Lectures of 1704, whereby he drew upon his faith and reason to present a convincing assessment of intelligence. For his part, Clarke believed that faith and science could be reconciled. Subscribing to the Newtonian physics conceived during his lifetime, he advanced a view that such discoveries could be reconciled with the Biblical canon and be part of the outlook of Christian believers. It was thus that two parts of his being - that devoted to the Christian faith, and that which regarded reason and science - were sincerely appropriated into Clarke's written works.
