A while back I asked several pastors and theologians what sermons or essays they would recommend that had a special impact on them, or that they would seriously urge students and pastors to consider reading. I thought it might be helpful to repost some of these by individual author.
First up, Bryan Chapell, president of, and professor of practical theology at, Covenant Theological Seminary in St. Louis.
Here is what he passed along:
- J.I. Packer, “What Did the Cross Achieve? The Logic of Penal Substitution“
- Francis Schaeffer, “A Day of Sober Rejoicing“
- Thomas Chalmers, “The Expulsive Power of a New Affection“
