This book is written out of real human experience . .. This is none of your ivory-tower stuff, written by one scholar with half an eye on his fellow scholars. It is an honest down- to-earth attempt to communicate the essence of Christianity to ordinary intelligent people.
Mr. Willetts...leads the reader through the New Testament book by book, and he proves to be an admirable guide. He shows quite simply what Christianity is really about, and how each book contributes to the ageless theme of the relationship between God and human beings—and between human beings and each other ... I can think of very few books which give such a lucid non-technical 'explanation’ of the New Testament message.
