Summary
Summary
Although we may go to bed at night believing the gospel, we wake up every morning needing to hear it again. Yet most of us don’t have time to dive into a lengthy commentary on the book of Romans—the book Paul wrote in order to showcase the glorious riches of the gospel.Thankfully seasoned counselor and author Elyse Fitzpatrick makes the message of Romans readily accessible in 31 devotional-like chapters on what Martin Luther called “the very purest Gospel.” Perfect for even the busiest of us, Elyse helps us grasp the practicality of the gospel message and experience the deep comforts articulated in the book of Romans.Editorial Reviews
Editorial Reviews
“Elyse’s gratitude for God’s grace spills out onto every
page of this book as she opens the pages of her life and comforts us with the
comfort she has received from God’s word. Her theological precision and her joy
in God’s extravagant love instructed my mind and thrilled my heart.” —Susan Hunt, Women’s Ministry Consultant for Christian Education and Publications, Presbyterian Church in America; and author of Spiritual Mothering
“In bite-size, digestible chunks she devotionally and
practically unpacks the ‘now-power’ of the Gospel, showing that the gospel
doesn’t simply free us from the past and free us for the future. It also frees
us in the present from being enslaved to things like fear, insecurity, anger,
self-reliance, bitterness, entitlement, and insignificance.” —Tullian Tchividjian, pastor of Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church; and author of Jesus + Nothing = Everything
“There is nothing soft or sentimental about the comfort
offered in this book. Instead, it opens our eyes to see the miseries of our
self-absorption and self-effort salvation and then applies the substantive,
solid comfort of abundant grace, imputed righteousness, purchased peace,
blessed wretchedness, no condemnation, [and] no separation.”
—Nancy Guthrie, Bible teacher and author of Seeing Jesus in the Old Testament
