Sermons of The Great Ejection
A fine introduction to Puritan preaching, this little book also recalls one of the great turning points in English Christianity, for these sermons were preached on the Farewell Sunday in August, 1662, when two thousand ministers left the national Church for conscience's sake. Much has been written on the Great Ejection, but nothing is more important than to hear the ejected speak for themselves. Their watchword was: I preach as never sure to preach again, And as a dying man to dying men. (from publisher's description).
