- Very worthwhile book to help us along the Way. 10 readable chapters, each with 7 points or subdivisions (8 if you count each chapter intro) to highlight the fundamental spiritual benefits we should derive from reading the Scriptures -- all of which illustrate what it means to enjoy a living relationship with Christ through His Word, over against reading the Scriptures as an empty intellectual exercise.
- Years ago a pastor said, "If you only read one book aside from the Bible (for the next month or year), read 'Flowers from a Puritan's Garden.'" I've now read it at least twice. Very much enjoyed this practical devotional book, an encouragement toward sanctification, in the portrait-descriptive way only Spurgeon can relate, and which is so rare to find today. The one negative I might raise is that there are quite a few typos and misplaced punctuation throughout, some of which causes a little confusion. I reported as many as I could find (verified against the print edition). Otherwise, I would highly recommend this. I did appreciate this over the print edition simply because the hard-cover book I have is in such tiny print, and gets even smaller toward the end of the book.
