A COLLECTION of Sermons of George Whitefield has been reprinted in paperback (Hendrickson/Alban, £9.99 (£9); 978-1-61970-061-1). This Evangelical preacher is thought to have given more than 18,000 sermons, but fewer than 90 survive. Among them are "The Seed of the Woman and the Seed of the Serpent" (Genesis 3.15); "Walking with God" (Genesis 5.24); "Christ, the Believer’s Wisdom, Righteousness, Sanctification, and Redemption" (1 Corinthians 1.30); "The Potter and the Clay" (Jeremiah 8.1-6); and "The Temptation of Christ" (Matthew 4.1-11).
