Note:
The books mentioned here are, in one sense, covering a fairly broad range of topics (adoption, dark providences, etc.), but they also have one goal: a stable Christian emotional life. They were given during the series "
Jesus Christ: The Pattern for our Emotional Life" delivered a singles conference, but nevertheless should be applicable to Christians in all categories of life.
The broad range of topics summarized in this audioclip are as follows:
Dark Providences ("
Behind a Frowning Providence" by John J. Murray)
Adoption ("Children of the Living God" by Sinclair Ferguson)
"
Thinking Spiritually" (a modern English version of a portion of John Owen's Volume Seven: "
The Grace and Duty of Being Spiritually Minded")
"
Learning to Be Happy" (a modern English version of Jeremiah Burroughs' book: "
The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment")
"
The Christian Man" (series by James Hufstetler)
"The Life of the Prophet Daniel" (series by Ted Donnelly) available
