J.C. Ryle: Unbelief - A Marvel

​J. C. Ryle (John Charles Ryle) lived in the 1800’s and had a powerful and impacting career in ministry. His books are still widely read today and even though he started in rural churches in the United Kingdom, he eventually became one of the most popular preachers in London.

In the sermon, “Unbelief – A Marvel,” Ryle talks about how incredible it is that people do not believe in their maker. He goes through common reasons that hold people back and what the people of God can do to challenge that problem.
