Why did Jesus have to die on the Cross? John Stott's classic explores of the meaning of Christ's death for us today
Re-presentation of a classic exposition of Paul's letters to the Thessalonians for a new generation of readers.
A clear case for Christians to be united in 'evangelical' belief from a much loved evangelical leader
The vision of a renewed community, as described in Paul's letter to the Ephesians, set against today's background of alienation and strife.
John Stott offers comment on the letters of John.
So many of us avoid radical discipleship by being selective, choosing rather those areas in which commitment is appealing, and steering well clear of areas where it will be costly. But because Jesus is Lord, we have no liberty to pick and choose. The author looks at eight characteristics of Christian discipleship, which are commonly neglected yet deserve to be taken seriously.
The message of the Sermon of the Mount. A challenge to us who are called to be salt and light in the contemporary world.
The message of Galatians. An exposition of a letter which deals with the gospel, faith and works, and Christian freedom.
Jesus Christ has been the dominant figure in the history of Western culture for two millennia, and His birth the pivotal event of our calendar. He is the focus of Scripture: as Luther declared, 'The entire Scripture deals only with Christ everywhere.' He is the heart of mission, the message that countless Christians cross land and sea, continents and cultures, to deliver. In masterly surveys, John Stott looks at the New Testament witness, at the way the church has portrayed Christ down through the centuries, and at the influence Christ has had on individuals over the last two millennia. Finally, turning to the book of Revelation, he asks what Jesus Christ should mean to us today. Here is the fruit of a lifetime of biblical study, rigorous Christian thought and devotion to the person of Jesus Christ. 'John Stott paints a picture of the incomparable Christ on a huge canvas. He applies his incisive mind, his commitment to Scripture and his sense of awe at God's purpose in human history, focusing with humility on the Jesus he knew and loved throughout his life. The result is a rare combination of wisdom and inspiration.' - Roy McCloughry
