Now it must be your sincere desire and unwearied endeavour to bring all these to a saving acquaintance with Jesus Christ, and the method of salvation which God has contrived thro' the blood of the cross. And to this end, besides what you do in a more private way as opportunity shall offer, and prudence direct, you will generally chuse Gospel-Subjects; and be sure to treat every subject you take in hand in a gospel way, giving it an evangelical turn, proving it by gospel arguments, and urging it on your people by gospel motives. And you will doubtless by experience find, that a clear method, an easy stile, and an experimental searching way of preaching, will be most profitable to the bulk of your hearers.
A Sermon Preached at the Ordination of Joseph Perry, Windsor, June 11, 1755, 1755, p. 27

2026–27 Bible Reading Challenge
- Help you actually succeed. This plan is practical, realistic, and guilt-free. Life happens. We get it.
- Get you inviting others. The feast isn't meant to be eaten alone. We want you reading with friends, family, and fellow believers.
- Missed a day or a whole week? Don't try to catch up. If you skipped breakfast and lunch, you don't need to eat them before dinner. Start with today's reading.
- Same page, many traditions. Our focus stays on the text itself. That frees us to encourage one another across differences and trust the Spirit with the rest. We're sharing a love of Scripture, not settling arguments.
- Nothing to buy. No subscriptions, no products, no fees. Invite your friends freely.

If man reacts to God's majestic-holiness with a feeling of utter insignificance and awe, his reaction to the ethical holiness reveals itself in a sense of impurity, a consciousness of sin, Isa. 6:5.
