The Passion for Souls by John Henry Jowett and published by Classics.
The Passion for Souls is a stirring call to join Christ in His ministry of redeeming the lost. In it, we are called back to the Apostolic message of Christ’s cleansing blood, the Apostolic methods of suffering and demonstration of the life of Christ and the momentum fuelled by the power of the Holy Spirit.
There is a wooing power in Jowett’s writing which breaks down the defences. He points out our failures with the finger of a friend. He is deliberate and direct but always conscious of his own need and his common failure with the people of Christ. He weeps as he pleads, when he cuts us he bleeds. He will, because of his deep passion and obvious care, be let into the hearts of many to test against the pattern of Scriptures our own passion for souls.
