The Baptists
Volume 1 – Beginning in Britain
Tom Nettles The nature of Baptist identity has come to a place of critical importance in Baptist studies. What exactly constitutes a Baptist? Tom Nettles seeks to answer this fascinating question through examining the lives of some of the most high profile and influential Baptists in history. The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky has an impressive library of Baptist materials including a rich archival collection, which Tom found indispensable for this book.
Nettles establishes a clearly identifiable profile of Baptists. He looks at many influential spokesmen for Baptist lives who embraced the bible as an unerring divine revelation. From John Spilsbury to William Carey we are taken on an enlightening journey through the origin and expansion of the Baptist Church.
Tom Nettles has produced a book that is wonderfully informative and, through its profiles of God honouring historical figures, should serve us encouragement to all Christians today.

The Baptists
Volume 2 – Beginnings in America
Tom Nettles Volume 2 tells the story of Baptist beginnings in America, and looks at the inspirational contributions of those such as Lottie Moon and Ann Judson in the growth of the Baptist Church. They shared the views of their English brethren, and were able to be instrumental in the new world in the achievement of separation of church and state.
The pioneer spirit combined with the movement of God's Spirit in the first Great Awakening to produce massive growth of Baptists in New England, the Middle Colonies particularly the South and indeed around the world.
In this delightful second volume Nettles has picked up where he left of, with another hugely informative and authoritative work, which cements his standing
as a groundbreaking pioneer in Baptist history.
"In this volume Dr. Nettles moves his readers from Baptists' beginnings in Great Britain to those
critical areas of development in Baptist identity: religious liberty, separation between church and
state, American Baptist confessional heritage, dynamics of Baptist church government, associational
organization, and foreign missions issues. Careful research, clarity of thought, and inspirational
quality are evident throughout, and these qualities commend Th e Baptists as a great blessing to
readers in the 21st-century. The wide range Baptist personages, fidelity to historical detail, and
warmth of piety, should make this work the definitive choice by readers who seek an accurate and
inspiring knowledge of those who contributed so significantly to the Baptist heritage. By the grace of
God and for the glory of Christ, may it receive the welcome reception that it deserves among a wide
range of readers."

The Baptists
Volume 3 – The Modern Era
Tom Nettles In the final part of Tom Nettles' Trilogy, he traces some of the modern movements with the Baptist diaspora. Nettles looks at the downgrade in the British Church through the lenses of C.H. Spurgeon and John Clifford and the decline in America looking at the influences of A. H. Strong, E. Y. Mullins and the Baptist Modernists. Key outcomes are explored that inevitably fomulate out of Baptist theology (e.g. separation of church and state).
The 'renewed contours' of the present day Baptist movement are also covered with particular reference to recent changes in the Southern Baptist Convention.
This series is a triumph! It serves as a neccessary addition to the story of the
church.
"This volume completes Tom Nettles' magisterial study of Baptist history. Building on his earlier
research, Nettles carries the Baptist story into our own times. A work rich in detail and offering a
distinctive interpretation of the people of God called Baptists."
Timothy George, Founding Dean,
Beeson Divinity School, Samford University, Birmingham, Alabama
"What has it meant, historically, to be a Baptist? Which modern Baptists would Charles Spurgeon
recognize as his theological descendants? What happened between Spurgeon's day and ours? Tom
Nettles masterfully explores these and other important questions, setting a new standard for Baptist
history. This is a book every Baptist should read. Indeed, anyone interested in the Baptists would do
well to start with these three powerful volumes. Nettles has not only given us standard texts on Baptist
history, the life stories told here provoke devotional meditation, desire for faithfulness, and careful
thought. Praise God for these books, then read them carefully, mark them thoroughly, revisit them
through the years, and impart this history to the coming generations."

Kindled Fire How the Methods of CH Spurgeon can help your preaching Zack Eswine
The preacher today in the West will recognize some profound similarities with Spurgeon and his times. It is true that postmodernism and Enlightenment Rationalism are very different philosophies. But their results are similar in that they promote wide spread scepticism and doubt regarding the authority of the Bible. The debates about the use of art and sermon length at the turn of the twenty-first century are no different in substance than those found in England at the turn of the twentieth. The effect of attention span and the need for story to accompany logic are not new topics of discussion for preachers. In addition, pressures that reduce time for sermon preparation and engender the temptation
for shallow or borrowed sermons are nothing essentially new.
"Spurgeon comes alive in these pages! Zack Eswine has done a masterful job. This book, like
Spurgeon's sermons, feeds the mind and stirs the heart."
Alistair Begg, Senior Pastor,
Parkside Church, Chagrin Falls, Ohio
'Zack Eswine has blessed all who care about preaching by giving us something we need – a downto-
earth theology of preaching made vivid by the exceptional life, ministry, and thought of Charles
Haddon Spurgeon. Spurgeon's quest to let the Bible itself shape his preaching and the Holy Spirit give
it power supplies a timely paradigm for those of us who preach today. Eswine's well-documented
treatment of the subject distills Spurgeon's intentional practice in a way that promises to challenge,
convict, instruct, but especially to encourage us to keep preaching in the confi dent expectation that
God will speak when we preach in ways that reflect how he has spoken to us.'

Lectures to My Students C. H. Spurgeon
Preachers often quote Spurgeon today because he had an ability to explain Christian truth to ordinary people with pointed, memorable statements. The people who heard and read his words were effectively taught theology and enjoyed it. He was a dogged defender of the Bible as God's truth.
There was another side to Spurgeon's Character, he had a sensitive and loving nature that was the spur to him preaching the gospel, so that as many people as possible could hear the good news about why Jesus Christ came to spend time on earth, building a church for eternity. This also showed through in his warm pasturing of his congregation and the setting up of a college for future ministers of the gospel.
Spurgeon realised that he could influence the church beyond his own lifetime if he could encourage future pastors to trust the Bible, love people and preach the truth fearlessly. To achieve this he collected his lectures to his college students and published this book. It has been a classic of pastoral theology ever
since and is still used to train ministers to this day.

The Complete John Ploughman Combined Edition of John Ploughman's Talk and John Ploughman's Pictures C. H. Spurgeon
C. H. Spurgeon was one of the most widely published ministers of the Victorian era, with sales of his books run into many millions. He had a gift for speaking the language of the man-in-the street and presenting Christian truth in a way that captured the imagination. Two of his publications of this type are here combined into one volume. Both are funny, pointed and profound in their content. They give answers to the common questions of the day on doctrine and behaviour as explained by a ploughman to his wayward audience. The newly typeset edition also contains illustrations included in the original editions of the both books.
Spurgeon was a formidable communicator – read him at his best!

The Soul Winner
Advice on Effective Evangelism C. H. Spurgeon
Spurgeon was one of the most effective evangelists of all time. Under his ministry Victorian London saw revival on a scale never seen since. Yet Spurgeon would be the first to point your finger away from himself to the true author of repentance and reformation–he realised that without God at work, he could do nothing.
Many people sought Spurgeon's advice on evangelism and preaching and so he addressed a wide variety of different groups of people on the subject. Here is a collection of his lectures and talks to take people away from human inspired gimmickry and slavish mimicry to think through for themselves how to enable God to work in their lives and ministry.
Spurgeon was the author of numerous books, his sermons were reprinted and sold in tens of millions. Thousands gathered to hear him preach, but he was not just an eloquent man, he was a man driven to taking the gospel to the people
with the utmost urgency.
