Comprised of 37 meditations written by Herman Hoeksema, Peace addresses the theme of struggle and suffering in this life of every believer as a pilgrim of this world. The meditations of this book are deliberately and distinctively devotional. They breathe the rich experience of the believing child of God. Hoeksema’s meditations express and form genuine Reformed spirituality.

What others are saying about this book:

"Peace for the Troubled Heart has recently been published by the Reformed Free Publishing Association. It consists of old meditations written by Herman Hoeksema, founding pastor and professor in the Protestant Reformed Churches in America, and first published in the Standard Bearer between 1924 and 1947. The editor, David J. Engelsma, has pulled together 37 of these meditations (some translated from the Dutch by Marvin Kamps), divided them into three sections (Pilgrimage, Suffering, and Struggle), and placed them under the above title, for a book that truly is 'Reformed Spirituality.' I well remember poring over my old, musty Standard Bearer volumes doing research on various texts, and being carried away by H.H.’s soul-stirring and soul-satisfying devotionals. I have long wished they could be resurrected and preserved in another form—and now they have been. Get this devotional book and digest it slowly; it truly is food for the soul—good Reformed food." -Charles Terpstra
