A Great Way To Get To Know Romans

The book of Romans is an absolute treasure. J.I. Packer expresses it well when he says, “All roads in the Bible lead to Romans, and all views afforded by the Bible are seen most clearly from Romans, and when the message of Romans gets into a person’s heart there is no telling what may happen.” I want the message of Romans to continue to get into my heart and life. To that end, I listened to Michael Kruger’s recent lectures on the book and want to commend them to you. These lectures were given at RTS Charlotte where Kruger serves as President. They were delivered not in a classroom environment but as part of a ladies’ study. They are some of the best teaching on the book I’ve ever heard.

The study is divided into “seasons” of 20 or 21 lectures each with each lecture coming in at around 45 minutes. Season 1 covers chapters 1 through 9 in 20 lectures (plus a brief extra). Season 2 begins in Romans 8 and continues to Romans 11.

For each session you can download the notes, then watch the video. They are as ideally suited for watching alone as watching with friends or family. Give them a try! I think you will enjoy them as much as I did.

Season 1 (Romans 1-7)

Series 2 (Romans 8-11)

    The Greatest Beauty I’ve Ever Seen

    One of the great privileges of my life has been the opportunity to travel far and wide. While most of my travel has been related to either speaking at conferences or filming documentaries, my hosts have often invited me to deviate from the straightest course to explore and take in the area’s natural beauty. It’s…

  • Spurgeon

    Must You Read at Least One Spurgeon Biography?

    I am not aware of a verse in the Bible that says every Christian must read at least one biography of Charles Spurgeon. Or every Calvinist, at least. But I also wouldn’t be completely shocked if it’s there somewhere and I’ve just missed it. And that’s because his life and ministry were powerfully unique in…
