Overview
Faithfulness and Holiness: The Witness of J. C. Ryle by J. I. Packer is a profound tribute to the life and legacy of John Charles Ryle, one of the 19th century's most influential evangelical leaders. This volume combines Packer's reflections on Ryle's life with the full text of the first edition of Ryle's classic work, Holiness.
Ryle’s journey, marked by personal loss and unexpected redirection, is a testament to God’s sovereignty and grace. Stripped of wealth and privilege after his father’s bankruptcy, Ryle’s life pivoted toward ministry, leading to his enduring impact as a writer, preacher, and advocate for holiness. This book explores his life, the faith that sustained him, and the timeless wisdom of his writings. Readers are invited to reflect on how God’s transformative work in Ryle’s life can inspire their own pursuit of faithfulness and holiness.
