<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>A moving and challenging exploration of the teachings and beliefs of the Puritans, this book calls today's Christians to move from spiritual superficiality and follow the Puritans' example of spiritual maturity.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><em>A Quest for Godliness</em> explores the depth and breadth of Puritan spiritual life. Drawing on a lifetime of study, Packer surveys the lives and teachings of great Puritan leaders such as John Owen, Richard Baxter, and Jonathan Edwards. He examines the Puritan view of the Bible, spiritual gifts, the Sabbath, worship, social action, and the family. The Puritans' faith, Packer argues, stands in marked contrast with the superficiality of modern western Christianity.</p> <p>In a time of failing vision and decaying values, this powerful portrait of the Puritans is a beacon of hope that calls us to radical commitment and action, both desperately needed today. Beautifully written, <em>A Quest for Godliness</em> is a moving and challenging exploration of Puritan life and thought. Here is J. I. Packer at his very best.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><strong>J. I.
