Daniel Burgess (1645-1713) was a popular Reformed, Presbyterian minister, and a fiery preacher in his day.

The Christian cannot check off a list a number of items to be better in prayer, bible study, worship, or any other spiritual discipline. Burgess will show that in spiritual duties all of them are a matter of the heart and of the head. The Christian canÕt check off, Òget your heart right before God,Ó or, Òmake your mind more consecrated to God in the morning.Ó They canÕt check off, Òimprove your use of the holy sacrament of the LordÕs Supper,Ó or, Òreceive the faithful ministerÕs words when he preaches as GodÕs own words.Ó These are issues of the heart, salvation, regeneration, and being a Christian. Burgess shows how to take these Òholy directionsÓ and think rightly about them in applying them in their everyday life.
