The Trinitarian Devotion of John Owen (HC)- A Long Line of Godly Men (Ferguson)
The writing and teaching of John Owen, a 17th century pastor and theologian, continues to serve the church. Daily communion with God characterized his life and equipped him for both ministry and persecution.
In The Trinitarian Devotion of John Owen, the latest addition to the Long Line of Godly Men series, Dr. Sinclair Ferguson offers careful reflection and insight for Christians today as he highlights Owen’s faith in the triune God of Scripture. We’re reminded that regardless of our circumstances we can know God, enjoy Him, and encourage others.

“Reading this book is like listening in on a conversation between one of the most trusted voices from the past and one of the most trusted voices in the present. In fact, that’s exactly what this book is. And as you listen in, you will hear the arc of the conversation bend in one constant direction. You will hear these two voices remind you of the glorious truth that the Christian life is communion with the Triune God.” —Stephen Nichols, President, Reformation Bible College, Sanford, Fla.
“This is the prime book I will recommend on John Owen. Sinclair Ferguson has so imbibed the spirit of Owen that he conveys the thought and heart of the great man with limpid clarity. This means that this book is far more than an introduction to Owen; it is also a rich and deeply affecting meditation on communion with our glorious, triune God.” — Michael Reeves, Director of Union and Senior Lecturer, Wales Evangelical School of Theology, Bridgend, Wales
“I cannot overstate the importance of this volume. I fully expect it to become a best-seller among those who appreciate Owen—and deservedly so.” — Derek W.H. Thomas, Senior Ministry, First Presbyterian Church, Columbia S.C
