New Book Starting September 17

The Gospel According to Paul by John Macarthur

The apostle Paul penned a number of very concise, focused passages in his letters to the early church that summarize the gospel message in just a few well-chosen words. Each of these key texts has a unique emphasis highlighting some essential aspect of the Good News of Jesus Christ. The chapters in this revelatory new book closely examine those vital gospel texts, one verse at a time.

John MacArthur, host of the popular media ministry Grace to You, tackles such questions as:

  • What is the gospel?
  • What are the essential elements of the message?
  • How can we be certain we have it right?
  • And how should Christians be proclaiming the Good News to the world?

As always, the answers John MacArthur gives are clear, compelling, well-reasoned, easy to grasp, and above all, thoroughly biblical. The Gospel According to Paul is written in a style that is easily accessible to lay people, including those who know very little about the Bible, while being of great value to seasoned pastors and experienced ministers.

Please purchase your copy beforehand from the vendor of your choice.
