This precious work is one of the greatest works on the Christian life ever penned, written by a most sensitive, learned, and perceptive man. Archibald Alexander was the first President of Princeton Seminary, was the mentor of the great Charles Hodge, and preached nearly his entire life. An eminently practical and biblical work on Christian experience, dealing with everything from true/false conversion to old age, from the revivalist movements of the 18th century to true Christian piety, this book embraces a wide panoply of issues facing the Christian of every age. The book is also written in a clear, insightful hand that will be edifying to both the aged wise man and the struggling newborn Christian. A gold mine for any serious, Bible believing Christian.- Ben Cable
