This, I trust, is a book that you will return to repeatedly for the rest of your life.' -- Joel R. Beeke, from the foreword 'Encyclopedic, doctrinal, spiritual, devotional, and readable-Ore from the Puritans' Mine has it all. Packed with insight, liberally sprinkled with turns of phrase and figures of speech that shed rays of light on a wide variety of subjects, here is a treasure trove of seasoned wisdom to reflect on, apply, and share. Truly a book for every Christian home.' -- Sinclair B.

For those unfamiliar with the Puritans, this is an excellent introduction to the major themes of their theology and piety. For others who already know the treasures of Puritan writers, this can serve as a handy reference guide for preaching and teaching or a valuable resource for devotional reading. This volume deserves a broad reception, and I highly recommend it!' --Tom Schwanda, associate professor, emeritus, of Christian Formation and Ministry, Wheaton College 'What a treasure this is! An invaluable aid to writers, preachers, and Sunday school teachers. Pure gold.' -- Derek W. H.

How I wish that this precious volume had been in my hands twenty years ago. Get it! And use it as its compiler recommends.' -- Geoffrey Thomas, emeritus pastor, Alfred Place Baptist Church, Aberystwyth, Wales Review With a title and approach reminiscent of Charles Spurgeon's Flowers from a Puritan's Garden (1883), Ore from the Puritans' Mine is just that a gold mine of quotations excavated from the mines the most well-known Puritan titans including John Owen, Richard Baxter, Richard Sibbes, Thomas Goodwin, Samuel Rutherford, John Flavel, Thomas Brooks, Thomas Manton, and Thomas Boston. Since the work has organized these quotations around a wealth of major biblical, theological, experiential, and practical subjects, it is an invaluable resource for preachers, p
