Details

A life's work by one of the world's most influential thinkers on the essence of the Christian faith. With compelling honesty, John Stott shows our generation the centrality of the cross in God's redemption of the world. In the cross, Stott finds a revelation of God's greatness and love, an exposure of the world's sin and slavery. This book is more than a study of redemption; it brings Scripture into lively dialogue with Christian theology and modernity. From this emerges a model for Christian life and worship, hope and mission.
