A Practical Theology of Family Worship: Richard Baxter's Timeless Encouragement for Today's Home
Description:
Baxter believed that family worship is God's will, a conviction that profoundly shaped and motivated his pastoral ministry in Kidderminster. It is said that, at the beginning of his ministry, hardly one family to a street honored God in family worship; by the end of his ministry, there were streets on which every family upheld the practice.
In A Practical Theology of Family Worship, Jonathan Williams examines Baxter's context, the encouragements he gave for family worship, and his family-equipping ministry among the congregation. This study develops our understanding of this vital spiritual discipline among the Puritans. Yet it also draws out implications for family ministry in churches today.
