PHILIPPIANS FOR TODAY
By Gerard Chrispin
Day One. 347 pages. £10.00

And yet this book, written by a man who spends a lot of time in prison ( as a Chaplain for Day One Prison Ministries!) about a man (Paul the apostle) whose life was marked by prison experiences as he suffered for the gospel of Christ, has a certain authenticity about it.
