Paperback. Condition: Very Good. "A great book. Many people have addressed this subject, few have done it with such biblical eloquence and elegance." - Michael Ramsden, European Director, RZIM Zacharias Trust For years Simon has been absorbed by the quest for a truly Spirit-filled life. But he has realized that this is only the start: the truly Spirit-filled life is one that has a heart for the marginalized - looking outward rather than inward. Justice, he writes, is 'God's delight'. The more we imitate Jesus, the more we will focus our hearts and minds on spreading justice. Jesus was a leper lover: who today is marginalized? Jesus had time for the poor: what is our responsibility? Jesus called for justice: how do we intercede? This is a passionate, luminous book, filled with revealing stories and cogent argument. 'Masterful combines a profound knowledge of Scripture, brilliant theology, and deep insight into the human condition.' - Dr Lucy Peppiatt , church planter and systematic theologian 'Ponsonby has done it again! You miss this book at your peril. Read it. Do it.' - Patrick McDonald, Executive Director, Viva "Simon's compelling exploration of justice and mercy is rich fare indeed. It is a feast of truth, served up in tenderness." - Anita Cleverly, Ask Prayer Network, Senior Leadership Team, St Aldates Oxford. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Simon Ponsonby presents 52 inspirational chapters, bringing Paul's greatest letter to life, and blending careful theological and historical detail with illuminating application. Romans is intellectually and theologically massive. Augustine of Hippo, the great architect of Western theology, was converted while reading Romans. Martin Luther's encounter with the text led to a personal revival and the European Reformation, and Dr Martyn Lloyd-Jones refused to teach on Romans for decades until he had grappled with and understood chapter 6. This passionate, illuminating devotional will prove a potent means of grace and growth. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
