Pillars of Grace (A Long Line of Godly Men, Volume Two)
This book will ignite and impassion your heart for the gospel and the doctrines of grace that undergird it. Dr. Lawson has done something for which we will forever be grateful- he demonstrates conclusively that the truths of Calvinism and the Reformed faith are rooted in the history of the church, from the apostles to the emergence of Martin Luther in the sixteenth century. We have, of course always suspected this to be true, but few attempts have been made to demonstrate it, and none with such infectious zeal as is to be found in these pages. Few writers can marry church history, exposition, and sound doctrine in such a manner as this. Do not start reading this book unless you are prepared to find that you are unable to put it down. It is that good. --Dr. Derek W. H. Thomas: Professor of systematic and practical theology, Reformed Theological Seminary Minister of teachin, First Presbyterian Church, Jackson, MississippiReading Steven Lawson's Pillars of Grace is like taking a helicopter tour of a mountain range-a breathtaking survey of a series of majestic peaks all pointing upward to heaven. Each chapter offers an informative, fascinating, and accessible look at a significant teacher of God's glorious grace, from Clement to Calvin. Read this book and discover that to be Christian and Reformed is to be rooted in the church through the ages. --Dr. Joel R. Beeke: President, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary Grand Rapids, MichiganIn this important book, Dr. Lawson has documented the teachings of many of the most important theologians, churchmen, and Christian thinkers of these centuries, showing that these mend did indeed have much to say about God's saving grace- and much that will be of great encouragement to evangelicals today. --Dr. R. Albert Mohler Jr.: President, The Southern Baptist Theological Semminary, Louisville, Kentucky
