In True Discipleship William MacDonald highlights some principles of New Testament discipleship and challenges every genuine Christian believer. He makes clear that nothing less than an all-out commitment to the Lord Jesus Christ is required of us. The savior seeks those who will give him first place in their lives.

Kept for the Master's Use is based on Frances Ridley Havergal's famous hymn "Take My Life and Let It Be, Consecrated, Lord to Thee". It consists of separate chapters on each couplet of that well-known hymn. Frances Ridley Havergal encourages us to take every single aspect of our life and consecrate it for the Lord's use, and we are shown very clearly that "he who is able and willing to take unto Himself is no less able and willing to keep for Himself".

In Egypt to Canaan, John Ritchie traces the epic journey of the Israelites from their redemption by blood all the way to the promised land. These incidents in Israel's history are illustrative pictures, or "types" (in the book of Hebrews they are called patterns, figures, and shadows), from which God will teach us important spiritual lessons if we are willing to learn them.

The Tabernacle in the Wilderness was published in 1891. Since then several generations of believers have been introduced to the rich pastures of Old Testament teaching. This new revised edition has been commissioned and produced in the belief that such teaching is timeless in its relevance and applicability. It is presented in a style, format, and language suited to modern-day listeners - especially for young believers in the 21st century.

These poems have been brought together in order that these spiritual truths and impressions, presented in poetical form, will comfort and edify God's people as they wrestle daily with the world, the flesh, and the devil. To know that others have felt what we have felt, 'Through all the changing scenes of life, In trouble and in joy' to hear the feelings in our hearts echoed back to us, to be reminded of our Lord's love, will comfort the soul and bring encouragement.

Majestic in its own simplicity. Inscribed above the portal, from afar. Conspicuous as the brightness of a star. Legible only by the light they give. Stand the soul-quickening words - believe, and live....

In Elijah, Hamilton Smith traces the major events of the life of Elijah, the Prophet of God, with all the highs and lows in his work as a prophet. Elijah knew only too well the inadequacies of his own humanity - he was a man who was "subject to like passions as we are". But Elijah knew the living God, was conscious of His presence, and was aware that prayer brought him into contact with the greatest power in the universe.

In this beautiful exposition of the unmerited kindness of King David toward the poor lame orphan Mephibosheth, we see a picture of the kindness of God, through Jesus Christ.

From the Preface: "The purpose of this little book is to show that the dedication demonstrated by the early disciples, is without exception, enforced by the commands of our Saviour. And not only that, but it is illustrated by the conduct of the apostles and early Christians. The author therefore asks that all sincere disciples of Christ carefully weigh what is written here in the balance of the Sanctuary, not the balance of the world."

As JB Stoney explores the experiences of Jonah and others in Out of Death into Life, he shows us that "WILL is the real cause of the restlessness, and of the absence of full joy in souls. ...the only true place of happiness for a believer is to be without a will of his own..." and how the enjoyment of our salvation depends on us appropriating the death of Christ.

In Woollen and Linen, J. G. Bellett exhorts us to live our lives wholly for God. We are not to be found wearing garments of "woollen and linen" or "divers sorts", i.e., we are not to live with a mixture of Godly and wordly principles.

The Gospel and Its Ministry is a classic book in which Sir Robert Anderson deals in fresh and striking terms with the great truths of the gospel of the glory of the blessed God, grace, the cross, faith, repentance and the Spirit's work, substitution, righteousness, election, sanctification, reconciliation, and justification. Still in print 150 years after it was first published, this book is just as helpful and enlightening as it was then.

Jehoshaphat: Worldliness looks at the life of this Old Testament king of Judah and encourages us to examine ourselves in the light of his mistakes. When a Christian enters into connection with the world, he lays himself open to be "persuaded" by the world - to enter upon an unchristian course of action.

Christianity is not a set of abstractions - a number of dogmas - a system of doctrines. It is preeminently a religion of living facts, of divine realities - a religion which finds its center in a divine Person, the Man Christ Jesus. He is the foundation of all Christian doctrine. From His divine and glorious Person all truth radiates. In this paper CHM explores Christ as a Test, as a Victim and as a Model, and asks the solemn question which still remains to be answered - "What have you done with the Son of God?

The Christian Life is a life commenced in faith, continued in patience, and consummated by perseverance. It is a Divine life into which only those born again through the word of truth enter. It is an eternal life, for "I give unto My sheep eternal life and they shall never perish," says the Good Shepherd. It is possessed by every believer in the Lord Jesus Christ simply because he or she is a believer in Him. It is not at all an attainment, but the gift of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

In Lord, Break Me!, William MacDonald explains that God puts a premium on broken things - especially on broken people. That is why we read such verses as: "The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit" (Psalm 34:18). "The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise" (Psalm 51:17).

In Christ the Way, the Truth, the Life (John 14:6), William Kelly clearly brings out the Gospel message and the centrality of Christ in all things. The Lord Jesus Christ said, "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life, no man cometh unto the Father, but by me".
