review:

Timothy Keller's brief but excellent series of ebooks on the life of Christ continues with a look at Christ in the garden of Gethsemane (from Mattew 26).



Discussed is the significance of Jesus taking on the full wrath of God on behalf of sinners, knowing what that was going to mean, and going through with it anyway. It should have an effect on those who believe and that is also discussed.



It's a heavy topic, Christ's anguish, and it's not lessened here. Our response should be joyful gratitude and that is infused in this short work.



I was given a review copy of this book by Penguin Group and Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this book.
