The Gospel According to the Old Testament (Series)

Anything that has "gospel" in it gets my attention. Anything that receives praise from Sinclair B. Ferguson or D. A. Carson causes me to seriously consider it. Monergism Books is offering a news series of books by P&R Publishing titled "The Gospel According to the Old Testament."

Description: The Gospel According to the Old Testament is a series of studies on the lives of Old Testament characters, written for laypeople and pastors, and designed to encourage Christ-centered reading, teaching, and preaching of the Old Testament.

Books in the series:
Praise for The Gospel According to the Old Testament series:

"At last a series on the Old Testament designed to provide reliable exposition, biblical theology, and a focus on Christ. These books should be like manna in the desert to pastors, preachers, teachers, and many individual Christians who struggle to come to terms with how to read the Old Testament."--Sinclair B. Ferguson

"One of the most urgent needs of the church is to grasp how the many parts of the Bible fit together to make one 'story-line' that culminates in Jesus Christ....This series of books goes a long way to meeting that need. Written at a thoughtful but popular level, it deserves wide circulation."--D. A. Carson
