The Influence of Dr. Lloyd-Jones

My life has been influnced by the good Doctor.  I first read his "Studies on the Sermon on the Mount" and it was like fuel to a fire.  I then picked up his commentary set on Ephesians and am curently in the first volume.  I have learned deep lessons form "Let Not Your Heart Be Troubled" and "The Gospel in Genesis."
Studies in the Sermon on the Mount
Let Not Your Heart Be Troubled   The Gospel in Genesis: From Fig Leaves to Faith

I recommend anything by Lloyd-Jones, next to John Piper he stirs my affections for the Lord and helps me glorify God and treasure Him more.
