This book by Tim Keller was a real treat. I read through the whole thing as a Bible study with my dad, which was a great means of digesting better the sheer amount of incredible commentary Keller brings to what many consider the theological cornerstone of New Testament systematic thinking - that being, obvs, the book of Romans itself. Tim writes to and for the laypeople, always considering well the many sides and dimensions to take into account when talking about the application of deeper passages of scripture to our modern lives, modelling ourselves as we must on Paul as he strives to emulate Christ... it was a bonus crossover for me having been reading through this weekly having also read Phoebe earlier this year, which is a great resource for understanding the original historical context and impact of the Romans' epistle.
