Jesus Christ: The Pattern of Piety
This is a study of various aspects of the life of Jesus Christ taken from the gospel accounts, and which provides a consistent pattern of piety for the people of God for their daily lives. We all need a role model, and there is none better than Jesus Christ Himself. Since the goal of redemption is conformity to the likeness of Christ, this study is designed to help the serious Christian to make significant progress in that very objective. This is an extremely practical study (146 pages).

The God of Promise and the Life of Faith
This is an in-depth study on the nature of saving faith from a series of sermons on that subject. There are approximately 20 sermons dealing with the most significant concepts and key biblical texts on the subject. These are followed by studies on the faith of our Lord Jesus; an exposition of Hebrews 11; the Sabbath rest of faith reveled in Hebrews 4; and then several sermons on faith by well regarded and highly esteemed Christian authors such as J.C. Ryle and others. This is a very realistic study, with much emphasis placed upon practical application at every point (173 pages).

The One Another Commands of the New Testament
This is a practical treatment of the more than twenty “one another commands” found in the New Testament. Essentially, this work explores our mutual responsibility in the body of Christ. The responsibility of “ministering” was never intended to be the role of the pastor exclusively, for God has gifted every member to minister. In fact, He commands that we do so. This notebook will help you understand what these commands are, and how to put them into practice (71 pages).

Holiness to the Lord
An in-depth study on the subject of personal holiness in the life of the Christian. It is not meant to be a treatise on theoretical sanctification, but rather a real help to the people of God in their pursuit of true biblical holiness. In addition to many important matters that are covered thoroughly, great emphasis is given to the New Covenant way of holiness, and the believer's progress in holiness. A careful study of this material will challenge your spiritual life with God (201 pages).

Winning the Battle in Spiritual Warfare
This is an in-depth study in this controversial subject, which is either ignored altogether or over-emphasized in the modern church. Attention is given to the role of Satan and demons as it is revealed in Scripture, with equal emphasis being given to the Christian’s ability to withstand him by putting on the armor of God. There is an extensive outline of the devices of Satan and the remedies against them from the book Precious Remedies Against Satan’s Devices, by the Puritan Thomas Brooks. Little else is in print today that covers this entire subject so thoroughly (200 pages).

The Cross of Christ
These were sermons in the form of communion meditations on the practical aspects and redemptive benefits of the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. They were from various portions of the Scriptures, but mostly from the gospel records in the New Testament. Each one was intended to reveal some particular aspect of the cross of Christ so as to stir our heart to devotion, and to stimulate us to walk closer to the Savior (85 pages).
