GET TO KNOW THE HOLY SPIRIT

Christians often ignore, misunderstand, or underappreciate the Holy Spirit and what he does. Since he is God, this ought not to be. In this book, Wes Bredenhof helps us see the Holy Spirit as he's revealed in the Bible, so we can understand and appreciate his person and work appropriately. Get to Know the Holy Spirit addresses many common questions about the Spirit, including his work in the Old Testament, speaking in tongues, and whether miracles still happen today.

Some of you might be wondering what is Providence Books & Press?…

Three years ago Providence Books & Press started with two or three bookshelves, a handful of books, a dream, and prayer. We had big dreams but few books to sell. Our goal wasn’t just to sell books, but also to try get more Christians engaged with their faith. I guess you could say we had a lot of big visions, but no idea how to carry them out.

Fast forward to today, and we still have a lot of big visions and still not much idea how we are going to carry them out! Yet, things have changed at Providence Books & Press; we have become a non-profit company, our inventory has grown to over 700 different titles, and the biggest change of all, we have been blessed with the opportunity to publish. We were blessed by @reformedperspective with the opportunity to take over the former Reformed Perspective Press, as well as the study (formerly ILPB). This has been a very exciting opportunity for us, but also a very steep learning curve!

To sum it up at this point Providence Books & Press is a small but growing non-profit Christian bookseller and book-publisher located close to Barrhead, Alberta. We don’t know what God’s will for Providence Books & Press will be, but we hope you will join us for the journey!

P.S. We have around 10 books in the works for publication so stay tuned for that!

We at Providence Books & Press are very excited for the upcoming release of our very first Providence Books & Press publication! It's been an interesting learning experience for us, but we are very happy with the end result! It is our hope and prayer that the church will be edified and built up by this book. Stay tuned for more details in the near future!

The Light Before Christmas
By: Marty Machowski

Getting new books is always one of our favourite parts of Providence Books & Press. We are always trying to improve our selection as we grow as a company to serve you!

At the end of last year, we said that changes might be coming to Providence Books & Press. Well, those changes have begun. We just returned from Carmen, Manitoba, with a trailer full of books. Whose books, you might ask? The Study (formerly ILPB) and Reformed Perspective Press books. In the next several months, we hope to consolidate these three companies, Providence Books & Press, The Study, and Reformed Perspective Press, under the umbrella of Providence Books & Press. Providence Books & Press will no longer be a sole proprietorship business but instead will become a non-profit organization.

We are very excited to start this new opportunity. We hope we will be able to serve you in many new ways and so become your source for Reformed literature. Please have patience with us as we work on smoothly transitioning these companies.

How In the World Did We Get Here? Is Jim Witteveen’s latest book. It’s a book about the ungodly who are conspiring against God and his church. Many ideologies are grabbing the reins of power. It doesn’t end there though but continues and finishes with a way forward for God’s people.

Knowing God is a classic of Reformed Christianity. It was originally published in 1973 and it has now been republished in beautiful hardcover format by Crossway.

"In this beloved work, Packer challenges readers that while they may know about God, it is not the same thing as knowing him. Organized into 3 sections, Knowing God explains the importance of theological study of the Lord, what the Bible has to say about God and his character, and the benefits of knowing him. From cover to cover, Packer teaches that each truth learned about God should ultimately lead to prayer and praise."

What about Evil?

Perhaps one of the most difficult questions to reconcile is God's Sovereignty and the rampant evil that exists in the world. In this 576 page book Scott Christensen argues that "God's ultimate end in creation is to magnify his glory to his image-bearers, most notably by defeating evil through the atoning work of Christ."

The Story of Abortion in America is published primarily for an American audience, but there is much value for those in Canada as well to understand the many historical underpinnings of how we got to where we are now. The first few chapters quickly dispel the notion that abortion is a new sin or issue. Although it is much more rampant or accessible than it was in 1652, the old adage does prove true: "There is nothing new under the sun." @crosswaybooks

Do You Believe ? Paul David Tripp

"Doctrine—what Christians believe—directly influences how they live. The biblical truths about God, humanity, and the world are not merely about knowing more—they are also about loving God and making sense of this life and the life to come. But what happens when there is disparity between what believers confess and how they live?

In his latest book, Do You Believe?, pastor and bestselling author Paul David Tripp takes a close look at 12 core doctrines and how they engage and transform the human heart and mind. According to Tripp, “true belief is always lived.” To demonstrate, he unpacks each doctrine and presents its relevance for the Christian life. As readers explore topics such as the doctrine of God, the holiness of God, and the doctrine of Scripture, they will be fueled to fall deeper in love with and stand in awe of their Creator and Father—putting the truths of God’s word on display for all the world to see."

"The church reached a turning point in the sixteenth century. Worship had become a spectacle, the gospel was distorted, the sacraments were replaced by superstition, and ministers lived in immorality. To restore the church to the teachings of Christ, the Reformers cried out for a return to God’s authoritative Word. In this classic treatise, John Calvin presents four areas of the church’s life and doctrine that must be carefully guarded and guided by Scripture. This timeless call for biblical faithfulness beckons us today. How will we respond?

This new translation by Dr. Casey Carmichael, with a foreword from Dr. W. Robert Godfrey, also includes A Reply to Cardinal Sadoleto, Calvin’s letter defending the work of reformation as it was applied in the city of Geneva."

I Didn't Know How Difficult It Would Be - Personal Thoughts of a Grieving Husband And Father

"In this easy-to-read, down-to-earth autobiographical book, Arnoud Vergunst makes himself vulnerable as he talks from his mind, heart, emotions, and affections about the loss of a dear helpmeet. All along the way, he is providing scores of scriptural, experiential, and practical tips and helps to the grieving. This book doesn’t pretend to have all the answers (what book does?), but it is so real, so personal, so suggestive, that I am confident that it will be a huge boon to any Christian who is sorely missing a beloved spouse. Highly recommended!"

—Dr. Joel R. Beeke

President, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary, Grand Rapids, Michigan

The five Solas do well to capture the essence of the Reformation. In summary, the five solas were the main thrust of the Reformation's return to God and conflict with the Roman Catholics: Scripture Alone, Christ Alone, Grace Alone, Faith Alone, and the Glory of God Alone. This devotional from Ligonier Ministries helps us spend 90 days learning from these core biblical doctrines.

What relevance do books and treatises from the 1600s have to us today, you might ask? The Necessity of Reforming the Church is a call to biblical faithfulness, a message we can't hear enough. We live in a culture of moral decay, and this decline has not left the Church unscathed. We do well to listen to and heed the wisdom of the voices of old, so we too cry out for a continued return to God's authoritative Word.

About

Providence Books & Press started out as a small, family-owned bookstore in 2021. We have since become a non-profit in order to expand our reach and to continue our original vision of nurturing and cultivating the love and growth of the gospel.

We have been graciously bestowed with two former publishing houses, RP Press and The Study (formerly ILPB). With this opportunity, we plan to expand from solely bookselling to begin book publishing.

Literature can never replace God’s ordained method of working faith—the true preaching of the gospel—but we believe it is a vital, even necessary, companion to preaching. It is this idea that formulates what we envision Providence Books & Press becoming. A Reformed Publishing house whose goal is to encourage not just a love for reading but ultimately to rekindle, enflame, or reinforce love for God and what he has done for us. Practically speaking, this would entail first and foremost the publication of professional, well-edited material in the form of books and tracts; second, it would incorporate selling and promoting other Reformed Christian literature; and finally, it could include things like podcasts, teaching series, reading rooms, and possibly even conferences in the future.
