A Little Book on the Christian Life

A Little Book on the Christian Life – John Calvin
This book is an occasional discipleship study offered for Sunday School, home small groups, or individual discipleship.

Pastor Neal’s description of the Book:

“This book is one of the great classics of the Christian faith. It calls believers to pursue holiness and endure suffering as they rest in Christ alone. Christians of all ages have found in the writings of John Calvin (and many other of the “reformers” of those days) a wealth of practical Biblical guidance for all of life.”

In this new translation Aaron Denlinger and PCA pastor Burk Parsons capture Calvin’s biblical faithfulness, theological integrity, and pastoral heart. This is a book for every Christian to thoughtfully read and digest in this confusing “postmodern” age.

Readers will find that this “Little Book” will help them:

 ◎ To understand and apply Scripture’s Call to Christian Living

 ◎ To understand and apply Self-Denial in the Christian Life

 ◎ To understand how Bearing Our Cross Is a Part of Self-Denial

 ◎ To learn how to Meditate on Our Future Life

 ◎ To understand How the Present Life and Its Comforts Should Be Used

Why Men Don't Pray

A short study that covers the reasons Why men don’t pray, What Jesus says about Prayer, and Thirteen reasons why men should PRAY!

I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone— for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. This is good, and pleases God our Savior, who wants all men to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth. For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all men— the testimony given in its proper time.  And for this purpose I was appointed a herald and an apostle— I am telling the truth, I am not lying— and a teacher of the true faith to the Gentiles.  I want men everywhere to lift up holy hands in prayer, without anger or disputing. NIV 1 Timothy 2:1-8

Women studies are important at Coquina Church, giving western culture dynamic departure from Biblical norms respecting “male and female”

Isaiah contains some of the most beautiful poetry in the Bible along with detailed historical perspective and detail about God’s “covenant people” during the Seventh Century BC. It is by common acclaim a theological masterpiece, presenting God’s redemptive plan for His ‘Covenant People.” Kathleen Buswell Nielson offers an in-depth, clear overview of Isaiah, encouraging you to read with understanding and joy. Women studies are important at Coquina Church, given western culture’s dramatic departure from Biblical norms respecting God making human beings “male and female.”  This book is one of our favorites at Coquina.   The study guide is rich with illuminating information and a Q&A approach to each class discussion.
