The Invisible Hand by R.C. Sproul
Divine providence ranks among the most significant doctrines for informing everyday Christian living. Sadly, however, it is also one of the most misunderstood doctrines in our day. This classic work by Dr. R.C. Sproul addresses this situation by providing a survey of the biblical teaching on the providence of God. With his trademark clarity, Dr. Sproul explores the many things that Scripture says about providence and how it intersects with human freedom. He helps us understand that everything truly does work together for good for God’s people because all is directed by God’s loving hand.
