How the Gospel Brings Us All the Way Home is one for everyone’s bookshelf. Don’t borrow it – buy it. Read it, digest it, meditate on it and refer back to it often. Author Derek Thomas does a marvelous job walking us through “the best chapter in the Bible,” Romans 8.Perhaps nowhere else in Scripture do we have such a clear explanation of the Gospel as we find in the first chapters of Romans culminating in chapter 8. The book chapters are divided into 11 digestible chunks taken from Romans 8. Thomas winds his way through developing a clear understanding of grace, the work of the Spirit, union with Christ, legalism, killing sin, adoption, our hope in glory and much more. We’re accepted in Christ rather than in our own works. We’re given an understanding of how are lives are to be lived in light of the Gospel and we see the final hope we have in the life here after.
Thomas writes in an easily understandable style meant to convey theological truth with devotional warmth. You’ll enjoy this and will be edified. You’ll see how, indeed, the Gospel brings us all the way home.
