Assurance of Faith (teaching series)
Doctrinal basis. Drawn from Scripture and the Westminster Confession.
Points to weigh
- Paid (prices on Ligonier’s page when I checked); the articles above are free.
- If your doubts come as repeated, intrusive thoughts that you cannot stop, see the OCD and Religious Scrupulosity topic: sources there (for example the International OCD Foundation’s packet for faith leaders) warn that extra reassurance and self-checking can feed the cycle, and recommend a qualified clinician.
- This is pastoral encouragement, not medical care. If you or someone you know is in crisis or danger, call your local emergency number or, in the U.S., call or text 988.
Classification and points to weigh are reformededucation.org's judgments from the sources listed below. They describe and do not endorse; confirm current details with the institution.
About
Eleven teaching sessions of about 23 minutes each from Ligonier: what assurance is, why people lack it, divine promises, personal evidences, the Holy Spirit’s role, and how to cultivate and renew assurance. Available as DVD, CD, digital download or through Ligonier Connect.
