In an age when modern devotionals have been published at an exponential rate, untold riches still lie untapped in the commentary, sermons, and devotional writing of our great forbears. This work makes some of the most spiritually penetrating material of the past accessible to readers today. Don’t miss this!
The Protestant Reformers were primarily Bible scholars who wanted the sacred text to transform the church of their day through their preaching and teaching of it. Much of what they said remains relevant to us today and there is no better way to celebrate their legacy than by sharing in the spiritual impetus that gave their work such great and enduring power.
When I need help understanding the Bible, I turn to the Reformers. Their interpretations are relentlessly faithful, their insights profoundly pastoral, and their theology unfailingly biblical. For those reasons, don’t miss this fantastic opportunity to read the Bible with Calvin, Luther, Bullinger & Cranmer. With the Holy Spirit’s help, you will certainly walk away in awe of God and his gospel.
Although I have read the history of the great reformers and the changes that came about through their work and witness, I had never read their personal understanding and experience of certain Scriptures. It was such a good exercise to get into their minds and hearts. I kept realizing that some things don't change.
Great idea, bringing the reformers teaching to life. Especially impressed by Luther on Galatians. Superb.
I have found the teachings very interesting and have just finished a study in revelation.
I am enjoying studying this book, getting my head around some of the reformation thinking in modern day is quite challenging. But I really enjoy the short blocks, which I am about to engage with everyday as my morning time with God
