Richard Sibbes (1577â1635) was an English pastor and theologian. A leading Puritan, he influenced George Herbert, John Wesley and Charles Spurgeon.
In his book Preachers and Preaching, Martyn Lloyd-Jones noted, âI shall never cease to be grateful to Richard Sibbes, who was balm to my soul at a period in my life when I was overworked and badly overtired, and therefore subject in an unusual manner to the onslaughts of the devilâŚ. I found at that time that Richard Sibbes⌠was an unfailing remedy. His books The Bruised Reed and The Soulâs Conflict quietened, soothed, comforted, encouraged, and healed me.â
In this little work, Sibbes reflects on Colossians 3:1 â âIf ye he risen with Christ,
seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth at the right hand of God.â
