Crossway Introduces the Collected Works of John Owen, Updated for Modern Readers
Regarded as one of the greatest theologians in history, 17th-century pastor John Owen’s works remain influential, but until now haven’t been offered in an easy-to-read collection. The Complete Works of John Owen is a 40-volume series that brings together all of Owen’s original theological writing, reformatted for modern readers.
