Description
Summary:"This book is an introduction to the work of John Owen (1616-1683), considered by some the greatest of English Protestant theologians. It focuses on Owen's description of the spiritual lives of his ideal readers. The book sets out to discover the kind of life he hoped his readers would experience. The good life is enabled by divine grace and extends that grace to others. This book describes Owen's suggestions as to how that grace should flow through the Christian life, from birth to the beatific vision, as the gift of the one who is the source, guide, and goal of all things"--
