Overview

The Bruised Reed is a classic work of Puritan theology by Richard Sibbes, first published in 1630. We have updated this book into updated, modernized English for your enjoyment and spiritual growth. The Bruised Reed is a devotional work that focuses on the comfort and assurance of salvation that is found in Jesus Christ. Sibbes uses the metaphor of a bruised reed (from Isaiah 42:3) to illustrate the tenderness and mercy of God towards sinners. Sibbes argues that God will not break the bruised reed, but instead will heal and restore it. He also emphasizes the importance of faith in the believer's assurance of salvation. The book is divided into three parts, each of which focuses on a different aspect of the believer's assurance of salvation: The first part focuses on the assurance of salvation The second part focuses on the assurance of God's love The third part focuses on the assurance of God's grace This book is perfect for small groups, personal devotionals, and for those interested in reading more classical Puritan works.
