Sobre IBD

Arranged by Perry Miller in 1956, The American Puritans is a classic collection of Puritan writings. Through a broad but judicious selection of poetry, sermons, journals, and tracts, Miller sends the reader on a deep dive into the world of seventeenth-century New England. In this volume, one encounters great speeches, such as John Winthrop’s 'Model of Christian Charity,' tender poetry by the likes of Anne Bradstreet and Edward Taylor, and the influential theology of Cotton Mather and many others. Miller’s scholarship is thorough and insightful, and a love for his subject matter shines throughout these pages. Far from promoting the common caricatures one finds in many studies of the Puritans, Miller presents them in a nuanced and charitable light; sometimes as stern reformers but also as thoughtful and sensitive poets, preachers, and vintage Americans.

  • Inevitable & Imminent
    Hugh Wesley Carrington
    We’ve been duped into removing prayer from the center of our churches and have placed it on the periphery or semi-periphery.  What we’re witnessing today in our churches, and in society at large, is that legacy of prayerlessness.  Church leadership may be hesitant and embarrassed to admit it, but there is a direct correlation between our spiritual weakness and our lack of corpo...

    If God is good, why do we get sick? When God created the world, He declared: "It is good." But then came the Fall, and with it sickness and death. In this heart-tugging monograph, Dr. Davis McGuirt draws from both his training in theology and the personal agony of watching his father die from cancer to provide a variety of biblical reasons for why we get sick. We are also remin...

    In 1928, as a graduate student at the University of Chicago, I unaccountably found John Winthrop’s Journal exerting upon me a baneful spell. I resisted manfully, as long as I could, but Governor Winthrop irresistibly lured me to the brink of commitment, and so I threw myself from the precipice of twentieth-century prejudice into the maelstrom of his epoch.One of my most revered...
