When young Thomas Goodwin and his friends went out to have fun, they decided to go to a funeral. Whether they had nothing else to do or were planning to sneer, the sermon Goodwin heard changed his life forever. Join Trinity, Emma, and Christian as they interview Dr. Michael Horton, J. Gresham Machen Professor of Systematic Theology and Apologetics at Westminster Seminary California, who has written a thesis about Thomas Goodwin. Find out how Goodwin's sermons and writings affected the people of his time and how they continue to speak to us today by pointing us to Christ, not ourselves or our faith.

Thanks to the generosity of our friends at Reformation Heritage Books, we are excited to offer a bundle of Simonetta Carr’s books to two lucky listeners! The winner will be selected just in time for Christmas. Register here to win this special giveaway!
