“Daily devotional books like the one you hold in your hands from the rich evangelical writings of the Anglican bishop J. C. Ryle are fabulous ways of savoring past treasures in our busy world. Each thought, as it were, can be read in a brief amount of time and then pondered at length throughout the day. It is a fabulous supplement to one’s daily reading of the Scriptures and prayer. And Ryle is one of the great evangelical authors of the nineteenth century, heir to the riches of the revivals of the eighteenth century, and like the Rock of Gibraltar in the battles for the Bible that liberalism brought upon his religious world. His own continuity with the past and his steadfast love for the gospel, both to be found in abundance in this devotional, are much needed in our day to shape both our minds and our hearts. This devotional is a great means toward that end.”
