Audio: Sanctification and the Fight - J.I. Packer

One of the best books to help me with sexual sin.
Another helpful lecture from J.I. Packer on God's way to holiness.

Relying on the works of John Owen and the Puritans, Packer explains what sanctification is and what it isn't.

He clears up many misconceptions, including misconceptions that I had before listening. I am better off because of it.

This is lecture 2 of 3.

You also should pick up "The Mortification of Sin" by John Owen after listening to this.

Douglas Wilson on "Apologetics and the Heart"

Good reasons, good defenses come from good hearts. If I am only prepared intellectually, I am not prepared intellectually. ~Douglas Wilson
If a man won't obey God in how he treats his wife, then why would he obey God in how he thinks? Rebellion tolerated anywhere will spread everywhere. ~Douglas Wilson
Douglas Wilson's essay "Apologetics and the Heart" is the kind of essay that you should already know the conclusion to but you read it anyway for the edification -- and to see how the author reasons (or exegetes) to the conclusion.

Read it here.
