They are the sorts of pieces that can get lost in the shuffle in the midst of book recommendations, classic and contemporary. For example, a few that came to mind were:

So I thought it might be helpful to ask some pastors and theologians what they would recommend as sermons or essays that have had a special impact on them, or that they would seriously urge students and pastors to consider reading.

I'm thankful for all of the responses. I've tried to add as many links as possible to free versions online:

Bryan Chapell

Graham Cole

Mark Dever

Dever also mentioned three books:

Kevin DeYoung

Stephen J. Nichols

Ray Ortlund

John Piper

David Powlison

  • B. B. Warfield, "Imitating the Incarnation"  ("The last page and a half offers the most riveting description of the goal of Christian living that I've ever read.")

Fred Sanders

R.C. Sproul

Carl R. Trueman

Bruce Ware

  • R.C. Sproul, Lecture on "The Locus of Astonishment" (A brief summary is available here. For a similar talk, listen to "When Towers Fall.")
