A Bruised Reed

Lloyd Jones said of this book: “I shall never cease to be grateful to . . . Richard Sibbes (1577-1635)
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, who was known in London in the early seventeenth century as ‘The Heavenly doctor Sibbes’ was an unfailing remedy . . . The Bruised Reed . . . quietened, soothed, comforted, encouraged and healed me.”
