Tim Keller takes us to the heart of a dispute of eternal significance. The Galatian church was torn between the view that their efforts saved them, and the gospel, which told them that it was Christ's work, not theirs, that mattered. The choice still confronts us today. This seven-study guide will excite Christians about the gospel, and apply it to every aspect of their lives.

Timothy Keller's expository guide to Galatians is a personal and group curriculum that will excite ordinary Christians in their faith and equip teachers and preachers in their work.

The Knowing the Bible series is a resource designed to help Bible readers better understand and apply God’s Word. These 12-week studies lead participants through books of the Bible and are made up of four basic components: (1) Reflection questions help readers engage the text at a deeper level; (2) “Gospel Glimpses” highlight the gospel of grace throughout each book; (3) “Whole-Bible Connections” show how any given passage connects to the Bible’s overarching story of redemption, culminating in Christ; and (4) “Theological Soundings” identify how historic orthodox doctrines are taught or reinforced throughout Scripture. With contributions from an array of influential pastors and church leaders, these gospel-centered studies will help Christians see and cherish the message of God’s grace on each and every page of the Bible. The book of Galatians is one of the apostle Paul’s most impassioned and eloquent letters. It warns Christians of the dangers of both legalism and lawlessness, while calling them to live lives that are shaped by the gospel. In this study, pastor Geoff Ziegler walks readers through the promises, warnings, and gospel declarations found in Galatians. Both accessible and theologically robust, this study will help Christians find freedom in their identity as God’s adopted children.

The powerful message of James' letter to the church is as relevant today as when he originally wrote it—though it is still as challenging to hear.

We want to be all right in the eyes of the law of our Land, of those we respect, of our Loved ones, of those we work with We strive to gain and then keep this right standing. In other words, we long to be "righteous." And there is ore right standing that is far better and more important than any of those. It changes grid Liberates every aspect of our Lives, for ever, and yet none of us can earn or maintain it ourselves. It's right standing with God. Romans 1 -7 is all about that righteousness It shows us why we don't have it, why we need it, and how we can receive it. It thrills us that "the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord" [Romans 6 v 23] These seven studies will help you to understand one of the most read, most written-about parts of the Bible. And as they enable you to unwrap Gods precious gift of right standing with him, they'll transform your hearts, lives, identities and perspectives. Book jacket.

Paul's letter to the churches of Galatia seems to burst on the reader like a sudden storm. The issues it raises still generate controversy, even after two thousand years of church history. In large measure this is because what was at stake when Paul wrote was the gospel itself. The question of whether human works were to play any part in the justification of sinners had to be answered clearly if the fledgling Christian movement was to prosper. And Paul was determined to answer it with total clarity. This explains the vigour and energy of his language, and the impact the letter has had down the centuries. Derek Thomas explains the issues dealt with in the letter and refutes the contentions of the so-called 'new perspective' on Paul. His book is an important addition to this expanding series of study guides.
