“Doctrine is meant and designed to bring us to God. It is meant to be practical.” (Page 94)

I read this book relatively quickly and found it very helpful. I then bought the soft copy and I am now spending time with this book and a few others to understand Ephesians. Although at times a bit wordy and out of date, his defiance in skipping over the surface and wringing every last meaning out of Paul's words has created a master piece. He speaks/writes like a pastor who is constantly trying to make the letter relevant and practical to ordinary people not theologians. If you take time to slow down and try to understand what he is saying, I believe you will not only find it useful but a real treasure of wisdom and insight into God's word given to us in Paul's letter.Bernard GRAESSEL
