Ballitch explores how deeply the doctrine of assurance of faith impacted Goodwin's life and how Christians can learn from him today. Doubt is a common Christian experience, and assurance of faith is a universal Christian desire. The Puritans were acutely aware of this reality--none more than Thomas Goodwin (1600-1680). Goodwin wrestled with doubt for seven years after his conversion. When assurance came, it was with joy and confidence that Christ was for him \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003epersonally.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e His confidence fueled a life of holiness, service, and perseverance. Ballitch highlights how Goodwin's life informed his theology and vice versa, so that readers can experience for themselves the joys of assurance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePaperback, 168 pages, Lexham Press\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"shopify-section-template--17085245390925__17490595864516c81f\" class=\"shopify-section section-apps\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"container\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"shopify-block-ARmpZZTUzSlB6MEZ3N__supadu_blocks_baker_academic_book_content_axM8GW\" class=\"shopify-block shopify-app-block\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"sf-book-content-ARmpZZTUzSlB6MEZ3N__supadu_blocks_baker_academic_book_content_axM8GW\" class=\"sf-book-content sf-json-block\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sf-book-content\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sf-book-content__list\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sf-book-content__author\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"author-bios\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"author\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bio\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAndrew S.
