This summer we are reading
The Inner Sanctum of Puritan Piety:
John Flavel’s Doctrine of Mystical Union with Christ
by J. Stephen Yuille.
As we do every summer when we break from our Wednesday night Bible study, we will be taking some time to read a book together as a congregation. The book that has been selected for this summer is The Inner Sanctum of Puritan Piety: John Flavel’s Doctrine of Mystical Union with Christ, by J. Stephen Yuille. The title is long, but the book is quite short. So we will be able to savor all the more the wonderful truths expounded in it.
