On a second reading of these sermons my estimation of their worth has only increased. Not only do you sense the theological acuity that lies behind them but there is a depth of pastoral perceptiveness that is not often encountered. In particular the sermons on Patience, Contentment and Anxiety are, properly, sublime.

Original review: Wonderfully rich sermons, deeply satisfying and spiritually engaging.
A decent collection of essays, but nothing overly exciting. John Webster is good, but some of the essays at the end are a bit confusing as to why they are in this volume.
Previously published as The grace of truth (Farmington Hills, Mich. : Oil Lamp Books LLC, 2011)"--Title page verso.
Includes indexes.
