Welcome to blog and May blog from Doug Wills.com. This audio is brought to you by

Canon Press. Subscribers to blog and May blog have heard lots about the Christian Heritage Series at Cannon Press.

Now available at cannonpress.com is Thoughts for Young Men by J.C. Ryle,

with an introduction from Michael Foster.

Solomon says that the glory of young men is their strength,

Proverbs 2029.

Young men have so much to give the church, but sadly the modern church has taught

them nothing about how to exercise their strength in a godly way. This book by 19th century pastor J.C. Ryle is short, but gives young men what they need.

Straight talk about being a Christian man.

Ryle does not mince words when describing the temptations to pride, lust, laziness, and more.

The devil is like a roaring lion who wants to devour young men, and the only way to defeat him is to fight sin and be like Jesus.

This classic is a powerful reminder from a wise man about how to be strong in the Lord

and to give no opportunity to the devil.

Read it and go fight win. As the air mattress spins around you can see lots of things. May 20th, 2020.

Some people have complained in the past, not too cochently, but recognizably,

that they find it hard to follow my reasoning at places,
