Description

Many Christian parents wish their children could sit under the weekly ministry of a pastor as faithful to the Word of God as J.C. Ryle. This devout minister was one of the most beloved figures of 19th-century England, and never was there a clearer or more gifted communicator of the truths of the Bible. Ryle used to bring an occasional sermon just for the little children of his church. 

This is a collection of those sermons - delivered with an ease of style, so that the message still can't be missed as your children read them today. Simple, but never shallow, Ryle takes a child by the hand and guides him into deep and great truths in ways that few adults know how to do today.  

Ryle's children's sermons in this volume include: 

  • The Two Bears (2 Kings 2:23-24) 
  • Children Walking in Truth (2 John 4) 
  • Little and Wise (Proverbs 30:24-28) 
  • No More Crying! (Revelation 21:4) 
  • The Happy Little Girl 
  • Little Things
  • Seeking the Lord Early (Proverbs 8:17) 

As a sample - J.C. Ryle begins his first story this way: 

"I am going to tell you a story about a good man, two bears and some children. It is a story out of the Bible, and so you may be sure that it is all true. Stories in other books are often only make-believe, and tell us things that never really happened. Stories out of the Bible, you must remember, are true, every word. Never forget that!"

About the Author

J.C. Ryle (1816-1900) was appointed the first Bishop of Liverpool in 1880 and was the leader of the Evangelical party in the Church of England for more than half a century. He is highly regarded for his plain and lively writings on practical and spiritual themes, and their usefulness and impact have been consistently recognized and remain as wise and relevant today as when he first wrote them.
