On Grace:
Transforming Grace (Navpress), by Jerry Bridges
Jerry Bridges is also the author of :
The Pursuit of Holiness
The Practice of Godliness
Trusting God
The Discipline of Grace
Jerry Bridges is profoundly simple in his understanding of grace: “My observation of Christendom is that most of us tend to base our personal relationship with God on our performance instead of on His grace. If we’ve performed well – whatever “well” is in our opinion – then we expect God to bless us. If we haven’t done so well, our expectations are reduced accordingly.”
On Prayer:
Thy Will Be Done (Whitaker House), by E.M. Bounds
“Edward McKendree Bounds was born in northeastern Missouri on August 15, 1835. As a young man, he practiced law for three years before he felt called to preach the Gospel. He was ordained in the Methodist church in 1859.”
A close minister, pastor, and friend, Claude L. Chilton, wrote of E.M.Bounds:
“As breathing is a physical reality to us, so prayer was a reality for Bounds. He took the command “Pray without ceasing” (1 Thess. 5:17) almost as literally as nature takes the law that controls our breathing. He did not merely pray well that he might write well about prayer. He prayed because the needs of the world were upon him. He prayed for long years, upon subjects that the easygoing Christian rarely gives a thought and for objects that men of less thought and faith are always ready to call impossible. From his solitary prayer vigils, year-by-year, there arose teaching equaled by few men in modern Christian history. He wrote transcendently about prayer, because he was himself transcendent in its practice.”
