“The Works of Richard Greenham, Volume 3: Containing Seventeen Sermons,” presents a collection of profoundly helpful sermons by Richard Greenham, a significant figure in the Elizabethan Church. This volume encapsulates Greenham’s dedication to preaching “Christ crucified” to his rural congregation, aligning with his pastoral identity of sincerely delivering God’s word for the glory of God and the salvation of others. The sermons tackle various spiritual and moral topics, ranging from the nuances of Christian living to deep theological reflections.
Each sermon is a testament to Greenham’s skill as a spiritual guide, offering insights into critical aspects of Christian faith and practice. Topics include the dangers of quenching the Spirit, the pitfalls of murmuring, the nature of zeal, the value of a good name, and the importance of humility. Greenham also addresses practical issues such as the good education of children and the significance of repentance and true sorrow for sin. In a series of sermons on “The Heavenly Purchase,” he considers complex theological discussions, while other sermons focus on Christian warfare, fleeing ill company, idolatry, swearing, and the mutual duties between ministers and their congregations. He also explores the confession of sins and the effects of Christ’s cross in two parts.
Greenham’s approach is both pastoral and theological, aimed at guiding and nurturing his congregation’s spiritual growth. His sermons are rich in scriptural references and practical applications, emphasizing the transformative power of God’s word in daily life. This volume serves as a valuable resource for understanding Puritan theology and pastoral care, and its timeless teachings continue to resonate with readers seeking spiritual depth and guidance.
