John Cotton shaped the doctrine, worship, and discipline of a fledgling society striving to live fully under God's Word. With clarity, conviction, and pastoral warmth, he addressed both the great ecclesiastical questions and the intimate personal wrestlings of his time. The Works of John Cotton gathers his most important treatises and sermons in a newly edited, cloth-bound set. It recovers a vital link in the chain of Reformed thought and reintroduces a voice that helped shape the American church before it had a name.

Autorenporträt
About the Editor Stephen Yuille is director of Puritan publishing at Reformation Heritage Books. He also serves as a pastor at Fairview Covenant Church in Granbury, Texas, and as a professor of church history at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth, Texas. About the Author John Cotton (1585-1652) graduated from the University of Cambridge University and is a highly regarded Puritan scholar, preacher, and counselor. He was appointed minister at St. Botolph's Church, Boston, Lincolnshire, England, in 1612. Twenty years later, because of a crackdown in the Church of England against nonconformity, Cotton was forced into hiding and in 1633 sailed across the Atlantic to New England, where he became a minister in Boston, Colony of Massachusetts Bay. Cotton was instrumental in the establishment and growth of Congregationalism, which became the dominant church polity in New England.
