Publisher's summary

Clear, concise, and penetrating, Practical Religion contains a series of writings about the daily duties, dangers, experiences, and privileges of all who profess and call themselves true Christians. Ryle explains that a "practical religion" is not a religion of works, but rather one in which those who are saved can put their faith into practice.

Great Book

This is one of the best books I have bought. I had never read JC Ryle so I bought it because of the reviews. I highly recommend this audio book. He rates up there with all the Puritan writers. He is totally by the Bible. The narrator is fantastic. After listening to this I will now listen to all his other books JC Ryle has on Audible. He is that good for your Christian walk.

Prophetic

It is hard not to listen to this and think that Ryle is speaking of modern times. I chuckled to think what he means by life moving quickly and needing to slow down. If anything, this book is much needed during this age in which we live. Christians will find this book challenging yet helpful. Those who are curious of the Christian faith may be surprised by the assertions made.

A must read handbook for any Christian

This book is one of the most encouraging and insightful treatments of the Christian life available. It will encourage you, teach you, convict you and lead you to a much more sanctified life when accompanied with the power of the Holy Spirit.

Pastors must read it, unbelievers may be saved by it and it is an excellent tool for training your family at home.

You will not be disappointed if you take this book in piece by piece even over a long period of time. Each section is divided into its own book so don't be concerned about its length.

As I look over the other books I have downloaded I am disappointed knowing they are unlikely to be as helpful as this one.

Amazing. A must read.

This is one of the best books on the Christian life, salvation, repentance, heaven and hell and everything in between. Everyone professing faith in Christ should take the time to read or listen to this.

A Book for the Faithful

After listening to this book I have but one question. With the Bible in one hand and this text in the other, what Christian could ever say that they knew not how to live the Christian life? I could only handle reading one chapter a day for I would spend the rest of the day weeping, wailing, repenting, and praying the God through Jesus would renew my mind, my walk, and my actions. I pray many would read this book and be saved from lukewarm Christianity.
