Preach the gospel (to yourself)
I came across this book while reviewing "The Shepherd's Scrapbook" blog site. Here is the recommendation that was given for this book.
By far, the book that has impacted my life more than any other this year (apart from God’s Word) is a tiny volume called The Gospel Primer for Christians I first saw the Primer featured on Girl Talk, next heard it recommended by my pastor, and purchased it at our church bookstore later this spring. The description on their website says it well, “The Gospel Primer is a handy guide designed to help Christians experience the gospel more fully by preaching it to themselves every day.”
How many of us are preaching the gospel to ourselves on a daily basis? Remember what Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones said that the problem with most Christians is that they are listening to themselves when they should be preaching to themselves.
Find it from Cornerstone Fellowship Bible church here. Gift-giving ideas: Since this book is quite affordable, it fits almost every budget (and is even downloadable from the CFBC website). By the way I have bought a number of these and am planning to give them as gifts.
Here is another excellent recommendation:
