Practical Works of Richard Baxter

His statue stands near St Mary's Church, Kidderminster. Richard Baxter is pointing heavenward yet this writing, The Practical Works of Richard Baxter expounds upon earthly topics such as Christian ethics, economics, ecclesiastics, and politics. This 948-page abridged edition contains several treatises of this 17th-century Puritan pastor who strove to make clear applications of Scripture to everyday life. The original 1830 publication, The Practical Works of the Rev. Richard Baxter, fills 23 volumes.
