An Introduction to the Life and Work of J. C. Ryle

John Charles Ryle (1816-1900), a lover of Puritan theology, was one of the most popular evangelical orators and lively tract writers. Known for his direct and punchy style, Ryle expressed gospel truths with clarity and vivacity, leaving a legacy that continues to shape Christians today.

This audiobook traces the life of J. C. Ryle, highlighting his work as a clergyman in the Church of England, the first Bishop of Liverpool, and a prolific tract writer. His tracts were designed to grab his readers' attention, with pithy titles like Are You Forgiven?; Are You Happy?; Do You Believe?; and Repent or Perish!. Ryle on the Christian Life offers a fresh examination of Ryle's timeless writings, delving into his profound wisdom on key topics such as Scripture, salvation, the cross of Christ, conversion, revival, sovereign grace, and more.
