John Stott was a twentieth-century pastor-theologian widely hailed for his heart for missions and expository preaching. Even today, Stott's legacy continues to influence churches around the world. As both a faithful preacher and a thoughtful writer, Stott profoundly shaped evangelicalism's contemporary understanding of Christianity through an approach to the Christian life founded on the word, shaped by the cross, and characterized by the pursuit of Christlikeness in every area of life.
Tim Chester invites a new generation of readers to experience the Christian life as John Stott envisioned it―not simply a theological puzzle to be solved, but the daily practice of humble service and compassion found in the gospel of Jesus Christ.
"Reading this book was a profoundly moving experience." ― Derek W. H. Thomas, Senior Minister, First Presbyterian Church, Columbia, South Carolina; author, Let's Study Revelation and Let's Study Galatians
