Christian Book Previews.com5 Stars Out Of 5February 13, 2006Christian Book Previews.comThis review was written for The Message of the New Testament: Promises Kept.Mark Dever has written a companion volume to his forthcoming book The Message of the Old Testament: Promises Made. Both books serve as overviews of each Testament. Dever is the Senior Pastor of Capitol Hill Baptist Church in Washington, D.C. In this book, he has compiled 27 of his sermons where every chapter is described as an expositional overview sermon on each of the New Testament books. Dever explains in the introduction, The sermons in this book are more expositional than topical, but they are expositional with a difference. Rather than looking at particular Scripture passages through a microscope, we are looking down from an airplane. (page 16) What an amazing resource for believers, lay leaders, and pastors alike who are looking for a decidedly biblical, yet practical, overview of the New Testament. Since each chapter was originally a sermon, there is a very logical flow to the reading. The accompanying outlines, accessible writing style, and scholarly approach to the material makes for an invaluable teaching and study resource. Each chapter also concludes with some thought-provoking questions that are great for personal study or small group dynamics. I wholeheartedly recommend this exceptional resource for its doctrinally sound, yet very understandable Big Picture treatment of the meaning of the New Testament. This will be a classic in personal and church libraries for many years to come. Buy one for yourself and get one for your pastor as an indispensable gift to enrich your pastors pulpit.

musicbuggAge: 25-34Gender: female4 Stars Out Of 5Exceptional messageSeptember 30, 2011musicbuggAge: 25-34Gender: femaleWe are reading this book for our Young Adult Bible Study Group... several people are mentioning that this book is a little "Over their heads." The style of the writer is very fluid and the content is superb, but I definately would not say it is an easy read. The author is obviously very intelligent and educated. Most readers, me included, feel that it's hard to keep up with. I find myself reading paragraphs several times before I actually understand what he is saying.
