Summary

In Serious Joy, Joey Tomlinson introduces listeners to the seventy Resolutions Jonathan Edwards wrote when he was only 70 years old, showing how they are directly relevant and needful for Christians today.

Each resolution is expounded on by Tomlinson in a way that helps the listener establish a regular rhythm of private worship by pointing them to the scriptures that underpin each resolution. Furthermore, Tomlinson harmonizes the resolutions with other writings of Edwards that bring them into better focus. The goal of this approach is to exalt Christ, foster meditation and prayer, and demonstrate how serious joy in Christ leads to growth in Christlikeness. All of this is accomplished by tethering the listener to the theology of Jonathan Edwards. In so doing, Tomlinson succeeds in bringing a fresh approach to the writings of Edwards by making them more approachable for the Christian who wants to understand the significance and importance of Edwards’ contribution to Christian theology.
