In a world that often demands strength and certainty, what hope is there for the frail, the faltering, the nearly extinguished? Richard Sibbes's beloved Puritan classic answers with tender assurance: Christ will not break the bruised reed, nor quench the smoking flax. This modern-English edition renders his rich, scriptural prose into clear, inviting language without losing the depth and warmth that has comforted readers for nearly four centuries. Sibbes unfolds the gentle mercy of Christ toward those who feel their faith is weak, their repentance imperfect, or their trials overwhelming. Here is a gracious portrait of a Savior who fans the faintest spark of grace into a flame of victory. Whether you are new to the Christian faith or a seasoned pilgrim needing renewal, this book offers a balm for the weary soul. Part of The Modern Wisdom Library.
