John Owen, Kelly M. Kapic, ...

Crossway Books, 2006

worth every bit of the effort
Takes plenty of work to read, but magnificently rewarding. I don't know of anything that compares to it on these topics of sin and tempation. It took me over a year, but I read all 400 pages and loved just about every minute of it.

Love It!! Great Gift IDEA!!!
I loved it as soon as I pulled out of the box and touched the shiny new cover. Opening it up was like entering a whole new world. The items are fresh and exiting. Easy to read and a joy to locate a new item that lays in wait for the unsuspecting adventuring party. ...

If it is not real what good is it?!!
If there is no delivering power from sin's control in your life. If there is no reality of Christ in your life.... what good is your Gospel? This book reveals how God, through the cross, can bring power into your life, if you want it. If you are sick of powerless ...

Communion with the Triune God

John Owen

Crossway Books, 2007

First John Owen Read
Reading "Communion with the Triune God" was my first experience with John Owen. I had read from his commentaries, but never one of his works. Kapic and Taylor do an excellent job providing background for, summarizing, outlining, and updating the work. Although Owen ...

The Death of Death in the Death of Christ: A Treatise in Which the Whole Controversy about Universal ...

John Owen

Banner of Truth, 1959

Christ?s Purposeful Death
John Owen's work, The Death of Death in the Death of Christ, is the classic text defending the purposeful and actual procurement of salvation for sinners in the death of Christ. While characteristically portrayed as a polemical work on the Calvinistic understanding of ...

The Pilgrim's Progress (Oxford World's Classics)

John Bunyan

Oxford University Press, USA, 2003

The very complete introduction by W. R. Owens did the job for me
"No other work in English, except the Bible, has been so widely read over such a long period." When I read something like that about this other work, "Pilgrim's Progress", I was curious. I got a copy and paged through it. At first I was disappointed, because I ...

The Globalization of World Politics

Oxford University Press, USA, 2008

An excellent compilation of World Politics papers
It is one of the most comprehensive and exhaustive IR books a proffesional, academic or student, can have. I recommend it without any doubt.

Who Can Save Us Now?: Brand-New Superheroes and Their Amazing (Short) Stories

Free Press, 2008

Capes and tights=quality literature
Usually when I'm reading an anthology I'll find a few outstanding stories sandwiched in between tales of varying quality. So you can imagine my surprise as I made my way through this collection and found story after story after story that delighted and impressed me. ...

Religion and the Death Penalty: A Call for Reckoning

Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Company, 2004

Frozen in Time: The Fate of the Franklin Expedition

Owen Beattie, John Geiger

Greystone Books, 2004

Great read...
God this book was amazing. It took me months to read because it was so dense with information and I kept gaping at the pictures, but it was worth it. The best thing about Frozen in Time was that the anthropologists that excavated the bodies were so emotional about it. ...

Uphill Battle: Cycling's Great Climbers

Owen Mulholland

VeloPress, 2003

Uphill Battle, Cycling's Great climbers
Mountains weren't added to the Tour de France until 1905. Tour boss Henri Desgrange added them only because a staffer incessantly hounded him until, finally worn down, Desgrange capitulated. At first, the mountains in the Tour de France were the more modest ascents of ...

The Glory of Christ (John Owen Puritan Classics)

John Owen

Diggory Press, 2007

A Profound Treatment of a Vast Subject
Though Owen is in no sense an easy read, here is a work with a profundity that makes any amount of struggle well worth the effort. One senses, in the author a deep personal spirituality and an intense devotion to his subject. Though the work is several hundred years ...

Buried In Ice: A Time Quest Book

Owen Beattie, John Geiger, ...

Scholastic, 1993

The Photos Alone Are Worth the Stars
After seeing a clip on the Franklin Expedition in a documentary on mummies, I rushed to the library to see if there was a book on the subject. The only one available was this book in the juvenile section. At first I was disappointed, but, noticing a photo of the ...
