"As furnaces burn with ancient coal and not with the leaves that
fall from today's trees, so my heart is kindled with the fiery
substance I find in the old Scripture-steeped sermons of Puritan
pastors. A warm thanks to the authors of Meet the Puritans for all
the labor to make them known." -- Dr. John Piper, Pastor, Bethlehem
Baptist Church, Minneapolis, Minnesota
"The recent revival in interest in and commitment to the truths of
Reformed theology is due in large measure to the rediscovery of
Puritan literature. The Puritans of old have become the prophets
for our time. This volume is a treasure for the church." -- Dr.
R.C. Sproul, President of Ligonier Ministries
"The Puritans--English, Scottish, American, and Dutch--are being
read again! In an era of superficial discipleship and erratic,
impotent, ailing, and dying churches, this is indeed a hopeful
sign. And this wide-ranging handbook of backup information about
the writers themselves, their special strengths, and modern
reprints of their books, is another hopeful sign. Meet the Puritans
is a fascinating compendium, scholarly yet popular and accessible,
that Puritan-lovers will value very highly--and justly so." -- Dr.
James I. Packer, author of Knowing God and A Quest for Godliness
