This is a good collection of essays taken from Pink's "Studies in the Scriptures." Subjects such as the usefulness of scriptures and prayer, the ten commandments, the advent of the holy spirit, etc... Combines practical advice with doctrinal truths, as Pink's writings usually do. The chapters each deal with a different subject, so this is a book that can be read as well in bits and pieces as straight through. I have read it more than once; it is worth reading several times.
