The Life of God in the Soul of Man (Audio)
By Henry Scougal, Foreword by Joel R. Beeke, Read by Angus King
Writing to a friend who was disillusioned by religion, minister and theologian Henry Scougal created what would become a classic text on Christian living. Compassionately explaining what true religion is and isn’t, Scougal shares biblical practices that lead to real spiritual transformation.
In The Life of God in the Soul of Man, Scougal cuts through false ideas about religion and demonstrates how to pursue true unity with God. He explains that religion shouldn’t be primarily focused on restraining or dictating outward behavior, but living a divine life characterized by faith, a love for God and others, purity, and humility. As it did for the recipient of Scougal’s original letter, this audiobook challenges believers to turn from empty religion and allow the Holy Spirit to conform them into Christ’s glorious image.
