About This Book
A collection of twenty-two occasional discourses delivers pastoral sermons and reflective essays written and preached across the author's ministry. Arranged chronologically, the pieces treat core Christian concerns—filial hope, rest for the weary, refuge in God, parental discipline, joy in the law, mourning and bereavement, temptation and the warfare of faith, heroism, fraternal forgiveness, ministerial relations, perseverance against evil, and Christian contentment—mixing doctrinal exposition, practical counsel, and personal reminiscence. Intended to comfort, instruct, and stir devotion, the volume presents a retrospective portrait of ministerial experience and piety through varied pastoral occasions.
