2 Corinthians, with its stirring description of the glory of the New Covenant, is such an important message to Christians in this pluralistic age. Plus Phil Arthur is a highly respected preacher of the Scriptures, whose ministry in Lancaster over the past 15 years has touched quite a few lives.
So I started reading this book eagerly the day it arrived. As Phil Arthur expounded on the balance of trouble and comfort in the Christian experience it was very helpful. In the following chapters, which were all based on his Sunday evening sermons from 1997, the author touched on loads of helpful subjects, including evangelism, leadership, repentance and church discipline.
