Our minds are constantly flooded with unwelcome ideas in this age of information and entertainment. In The Vanity of Thoughts, Thomas Goodwin challenges us to fight these frivolous and sinful mental companions. This timely reminder about the importance of mind renewal paves a path to bringing every thought captive to the Lordship of Jesus Christ.

The grace of Jesus, free and everlasting, isn't diminished by iniquity but is inclined toward the afflicted. The Savior, who was tempted but never sinned, shows tender affection for sinners. And in the book of John, when Jesus spoke of his coming ascension to heaven, he didn't focus on his own glory; he promised to remain close to believers, interceding for them from heaven.

Thomas Goodwin seeks not to diminish that truth, but to enhance it by ensuring the church that Jesus Christ is also still perfectly loving and astoundingly forgiving. His love for his people is pure, genuine, and humble. He is still the one who washed his disciples’ feet and met a sinner at the well. He is a compassionate and tender father who desires to encourage and uplift his children. Goodwin encourages Christians to endeavor to fully grasp this concept and to let it influence their own perception of and love for Christ.

You will learn much about the life and works of this influential Puritan, and perhaps, be strengthened with a habitual sight of Christ.
