Description
Richard Sibbes (1577–1635) was an English pastor and theologian. A leading Puritan, he influenced George Herbert, John Wesley and Charles Spurgeon.
In his book Preachers and Preaching, Martyn Lloyd-Jones noted, “I shall never cease to be grateful to Richard Sibbes, who was balm to my soul at a period in my life when I was overworked and badly overtired, and therefore subject in an unusual manner to the onslaughts of the devil…. I found at that time that Richard Sibbes… was an unfailing remedy. His books The Bruised Reed and The Soul’s Conflict quietened, soothed, comforted, encouraged, and healed me.”
In this little work, Sibbes reflects on Colossians 3:1 — “If ye he risen with Christ,
seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth at the right hand of God.”
