Description:Whether you’re meeting them for the first time or returning with questions, this is the indispensable guide to the lives and works of the Puritans.If your impression of the Puritans comes from grim portraits, high collars, and joyless sermons, Meet the Puritans will surprise you in the best way. Behind those caricatures lies a warm, Christ-centered spiritual tradition shaped by people who loved Scripture, treasured grace, and sought to glorify God in every part of life.The Puritans took life seriously—because they took God seriously. Grace and guilt, love and sacrifice, heaven and hell weren’t abstractions to them; they were urgent realities.
