The Heart of Christ (1651)

by Thomas Goodwin

MembersReviewsPopularityAverage ratingConversations
331None79,534 (4)None
The Son of God sitting at the right hand of the Father in the throne room of Heaven-a perfect, eternal, and sinless being-is a daunting and intimidating image. Thomas Goodwin seeks not to diminish that truth, but to enhance it by ensuring the church that Jesus Christ is also still perfectly loving and astoundingly forgiving. His love for His people is pure, genuine, and humble. He is still the one who washed His disciples' feet and met a sinner at the well. He is a compassionate and tender father who desires to encourage and uplift His children. Goodwin encourages Christians to endeavor to fully grasp this concept and to let it influence their own perception of and love for Christ. In understanding this truth, seeking to return that love, to the best of human ability, is the inevitable immediate response. To gratefully love in return is the only true reaction to realizing and feeling such an unconditional love from such a perfect God. This series, published by ONE audiobooks, seeks to produce Classic Christian titles read by well known and loved audiobook narrators. ONE takes great care to cast these titles with readers who will provide an unmatched listening experience for these important works. David Cochran Heath brings his passion to every performance and is considered to be one of the top audiobook narrators in the industry.… (more)
