"There are important biblical themes that need to be studied and
preached through the lens of biblical theology. John does an
excellent job of taking some of these themes and concisely showing
how they unfold through redemptive history, pointing to Christ. I
would recommend this book to anyone, particularly to students who
are learning to preach, as a primer in understanding how the text
on which they are preaching needs be understood in light of the
whole Bible."
--John Verdi, pastor, Sonship Ministries
"John has done a service for God's people in writing an accessible
survey of biblical themes. These themes capture the stream of
redemptive history throughout Scripture. Our eyes are directed
toward the all-sufficient Christ and to the gospel as the remedy
for the corruption which entered our world through our first
parents. We are reminded that God will unfailingly bring all things
to his desired end for the good of his people and the glory of his
name."
--Stephen M. Davis, elder, Grace Church of Philly
