Perfect Love provides an in-depth explanation of entire sanctification and helps listeners pursue all that God has for us.

The peace Jesus offers us is more than just words. It's healing for our hurts and calm for our troubled hearts. It's love and acceptance when others misunderstand us and push us away. It's the freedom of a new identity in Him, defined not by how good we are but by how good He is.

In the throes of a long illness and confronting the possibility of death, 17th-century theologian Richard Baxter found comfort in the reality of heaven that awaits believers of Christ.

Welch shows us the purpose for which we were created: to be brought near to God as a kingdom of priests.

Saint Augustine's contributions to Christian theology are second to no other post-apostolic author in the whole sweep of church history.
