An Introduction to John Owen (Pre-order expected July 2020)
Over 3 centuries since his death, John Owen, the most important English Puritan theologian, continues to impact his readers.
In his 8 million published words, he addressed a wide range of topics, from theological polemic and biblical commentary to social and political issues such as the proper nurture and education of children. In An Introduction to John Owen, Crawford Gribben offers a survey of these works, showing what Owen considered to be part of the spiritual life he imagined for his readers. For Owen, spiritual life was about increasing in grace and goodness, in fellowship with each member of the Trinity. This introduction to Owen's works shows how he developed a Christian vision for every stage of life.
