Gerald Bray's helpful survey of the history and historic formularies of the Anglican tradition succeeds, on the one hand, in capturing the many-splendored character of Anglicanism, while demonstrating on the other that it is "Reformed Catholicism"--a Reformation church within the ancient Catholic tradition. --Joel Scandrett, assistant professor of theology at Trinity School for Ministry and editor of To Be a Christian: An Anglican Catechism The modesty of this book is inversely proportional to its accomplishment: judicious, clear, winsome, thorough, disciplined, accessible, and articulate. Gerald Bray writes in the spirit of J. I. Packer and John Stott and has gifted the church with an unrivaled brief introduction to Anglicanism. Deo gratias! --Mark Bowald, professor of theology, Grace Theological Seminary Students and pastors alike will gain new insights into this crucial telling of the Good News by working through this little primer. --Ben Witherington, III, Amos Professor of NT for Doctoral Studies, Asbury Theological Seminary An accessible and engaging book. --Jeannine Brown, Professor of New Testament & Director of Online Programs, Bethel Seminary Pastors, teachers, students, and all others who want to understand this Gospel and pass along its good news to others will find this book to be an outstanding resource.
--Robert W. Yarbrough, Professor of New Testament, Covenant Theological Seminary Forgoing unnecessary academic lingo, Köstenberger writes this work in a way that communicates well for pastors and lay readers. After a robust and, I believe, persuasive defense of the Fourth Gospel's authorship by the apostle John, Köstenberger works through the Gospel in ways both practical and edifying. --Craig S. Keener, F. M. and Ada Thompson Professor of Biblical Studies, Asbury Theological Seminary.
