I finished The Bruised Reed also. I bawled through ending, highlighting as I went. It was a wonderful book. A must read for all Christians.

Important PRC Announcement: April Schedule Change « Provocations & Pantings (March 19, 2008)
Important PRC Announcement: April Schedule Change
Many of you (I am told around 300) have purchased the P&P special from RHB which includes all twelve Puritan Paperbacks in a set. Well, not quite all twelve. As you know, Thomas Brooks’ book, Precious Remedies Against Satan’s Devices, has been sold out and back-ordered for a couple of months. While I have been informed that they are close to filling those orders in the near future, it appears that the books will not be available in time for the beginning of April which is the month dedicated to reading Brooks. Therefore, I have decided to make a schedule change.
Here’s the deal: For the month of April, instead of reading Brooks’ Precious Remedies, we are going to read Jeremiah Burroughs’ The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment which was slated for August. In August, we will then read Brooks.
Make sense?
Please help me get the word out on this. There are so many people from so many corners of the internet that I cannot possibly connect with everyone. So if you can, please help me get this announcement out. I am looking forward to digging into Burroughs next month with you as we learn about great gain of godliness with contentment.

I guess peeking ahead is allowed.Thanks for the feedback, Traci.
For others who might feel like it's too late to get started on this, it's never too late to start reading the Puritans.

Ok, I'm not getting any feedback anymore. Does mean that our Puritan readers are guilty of "a superfluity of naughtiness"?
