'Chosen By God' is his classic treatment of reformed theology. 'The Last Days According to Jesus' is a great partial-preterist treatment. I have only read these two.

Hope this helps. BTW, I love the way that your sig is evolving SP! :)

Do you listen to Sproul or buy his books? Can you suggest a title, perhaps something on personal holiness or growing in grace?
I too would recommend "Chosen By God". I would also recommend many others such as "Faith Alone", "The Holiness of God", "Pleasing God", "Willing to Believe", "The Mystery of the Holy Spirit", "The Consequences of Ideas: Understanding the Concepts that Shaped our World", and MANY others. The first three titles above are my all time favorites by Dr. Sproul though. The three in bold are probably more along the lines of what you have asked for though.

Many of the CD series are excellent as well, James and Hebrews coming quickly to mind. There is a little series called "If God Is Sovereign, How Can Man Be Free" that is great, as well "Battle for Our Minds", What is Reformed Theology", and "Justification By Faith Alone". Check out the Online Store for most items at: http://www.ligonier.org/radio/index.php

Yours and His,
David

I know this is not R.C. Sproul but have you read Holines by J.C. Ryle or the Pursuit of Holiness by Bridges? Two excellent books on personal holiness I highly recommend. Don't get me wrong though I love and recommend anything by R.C. Sproul. By the way for the dispesational side of your sig. I recommend Christ of the Covenants by O. Palmer Robertson. That's just my 2 cents.

I read "If there's a God, why are there atheists?" by RC Sproul and it was a wonderful book. He really just got to the core reasons of atheism from psychological and philisophical viewpoints. A great read!
Ah an Augustinian Catholic. Welcome! :thumbsup: RC Sproul has a wonderful way of intelligently discussing the core doctrines.

Hey Street Preacher. Sproul is one of the best reformed teachers out there. I am currently rereading "Grace Unknown." It is a fantastic book that approaches the issues of the Gospel from a very understandable perspective.

On a side note, I would like to echo the earlier comments of Irishcat922 in regard to Jerry Bridges book, "The Pursuit Of Holiness." It is a wonderful read. I have probably read it 10 times and make it a point to reread it about once a month.

God bless
