In Depth Study of Romans

This is an excellent in depth study of Romans from a reformed conservative view by John Stott. It is not light reading at all but it is full of much insight into the words as well as the writer, who is the apostle Paul. Stott takes you through this wonderful book chapter by chapter and verse by verse. I would highly recommend this book for those who are interested in a serious understanding of this book of the New Testament.

Very insightful

This is a tough book of the bible to study. However, this guide does a great job of getting you to think about it in terms of our lives today. I highly recommend.

Very thorough, very encouraging!

Stott does a great job (as usual) in this very thorough study on the book of Romans. He covers all of the major issues and themes in the book with scholarly integrity. At the same time he masterfully encourages the true believer as to the power of a sovereign God and the value of a true believer. It's not the lightest reading but it is well worth the effort.

experience and understand the gospel as a group

The first few chapters are hard going and it will take a leader experienced with the bible, studying hard to get through but after a little while the book moves on to the heart of the gospel and everyone will be blessed. John Stott writes leading questions that facilitate conversation and lead to easy study.
