A few nights ago I finished reading two small books: C. J. Mahaney's The Cross Centered Life: Keeping the Gospel The Main Thing (see also CBD) and Joel R. Beeke's Holiness: God's Call to Sanctification (see also CBD or RHB).
Both of these are books that can be quickly read, but must be reread, and reread again. Their messages are simple, straightfoward and profound. C.J. Mahaney is a speaker filled with gospel passion and this book reflects that very well.
Joel Beeke is an eminent, modern, experimental pastor/theologian. Everything that I have heard from him and read by him has been exceptionally edifying.
In the next few weeks I will begin teaching our teen SS class. My plan is to work through Beeke's book and use Mahaney's as supplemental. I'm very excited about this plan and opportunity. I have been richly blessed in the preparations.
