GREEN PASTURES: A Primer on the Ordinary Means of Grace
J. Ryan Davidson
This book, written for the person in the pew, is a helpful guide to understanding the ordinary means of grace. The book seeks to make the confessional position clear and to demonstrate it through the pages of the Scriptures. Written as a scriptural survey of the various ordinary means of grace, the book details the idea of what is meant by “ordinary means of grace” and it walks through the ministry of the Word, the two sacraments of baptism and the Lord’s Supper, and prayer, with a chapter dedicated to each. Finally, there is a concluding chapter which includes a discussion on the weekly rhythm the Scriptures reveal for the nourishment of the people of Christ. Endorsed by Tom Ascol, Liam Goligher, James Renihan, and Carl Trueman
One reader made the following comments: "This work was extremely helpful and concise. Pastor Davidson does a thorough and precise exposition of various Scriptures explaining and showing us the ordinary means of grace that Christ has given to His Church, to build and strengthen our faith. The last chapter ("The Green Pastures of Our Shepherd") was especially encouraging as Pastor Davidson reminds us of the risen and ascended Christ still being present with us in this age, through the Holy Spirit, and His continued care for and feeding of His people; by the ordinary means He pastures His flock. I highly recommend this book to all Christians, both layman and officer. It is an excellent primer on the ordinary means of grace."
