ligonier ministries 2009 christmas gift guide

Dear friend,

Like every other year, this Christmas season will be filled with joy and activity.

Cookies will be baked, cards will be sent, special music will be heard, and presents

of all shapes and sizes will be exchanged. We will be on the lookout for the perfect

gift, the one that will bring great delight to our loved ones.

As in years past, I am looking forward to seeing my friends and family open the

presents I am giving them this year. But as I give them, I always work to remember

why we give gifts at Christmas. We give gifts in order that we may, in some small

way, imitate the one who gave us the ultimate gift two thousand years ago.

Christ is this ultimate gift, the Son of God who became

incarnate for the sake of our salvation. From His birth to

His ascension, our Lord’s entire life was a gift that makes

it possible for us to be restored to our holy Creator. May we

all celebrate the gift of Jesus and the grace our Father has

shown us in sending Him.

Merry Christmas,

There is a need in the church today for men

a man is to be are exacerbating the prob-

demands sound exegesis of biblical passages

The Prayer of the Lordby R . C . S p r o u l

Christ gave the Lord’s Prayer to teach His

disciples about prayer, and R.C. Sproul, in his

trademark fashion, brings out many of the

truths Christ intended for His followers to

learn. Readers will learn how not to pray, then

they will be led into a deeper understanding

of various topics. The final chapter includes

questions and answers on aspects of prayer

not covered elsewhere in the book, and the

appendix addresses the difficult question of the

relationship of God’s sovereignty and prayer. The

Prayer of the Lord is an eye-opening journey, one

that reveals new vistas in familiar terrain.

Surprised by Sufferingby R . C . S p r o u l

John In this second volume of the St.

series, Dr. Sproul deals with major

themes in his easily understandable

style. Readers will find invaluable

insights into the goals John had in

writing his gospel, the background

for Jesus’ time, and the meanings

of some of John’s most difficult

passages. This introduction to

the gospel of John is packed with

insights and exhortations that will

draw the reader closer to the Savior

and encourage him or her to a

greater depth of love and devotion.

The problem of suffering is often raised by those

who question the goodness or the power of god.

R.C. Sproul provides biblical answers to the

questions about suffering and addresses some

of the many unbiblical conclusions that are put

forth today. In the end, he shows that suffering is

not outside the realm of god’s providence and His

good purposes.
