Preachers who need to illustrate and clarify their sermons, new Christians taking their first steps following our Lord, believers who fear they are getting lukewarm and long again for a burning heart. This book is for us all. Meet again the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ! Let it confront you and inspire you so that you soar with wings as an eagle. You can! Sit quietly and consider these inspiring exhortations.” — Geoffrey Thomas, author of Everyone’s Invited

To preach the gospel to yourself every day is good medicine, and The Grace of the Gospel, edited by Joel Beeke, will help you do that. Think of this book as a gospel primer, covering all aspects of God’s redemptive message of salvation to needy sinners. Rich and satisfying!”— Derek W. H.
