`a stimulating and challenging read, well suited to the needs of
the minister seeking some fresh insights and approaches to a
doctrine at the heart of life and faith ... There is a helpful
introductory summary of each essay provided at the start of the
book. Here is a high quality and accesible fare on which to dine,
an excellent buy for the minister to keep up to date and glean
ideas for preaching and pastoral insight.'
