Zack Groff –
Written for readers who are generally unfamiliar with Reformed Christian theology, this is a clear and thoughtful treatment of an important theme of faith and practice: what it means to “grow in grace.” Master explores the theme of Christian growth/maturity by considering Christ and what it means for believers to be Christlike. Along the way, Master ably presents Christ in His offices of prophet, priest, and king; keeps Scripture at the center of the discussion; exhorts his readers to recognize the indispensability of the church in the life of the believer; briefly explains the sacraments; and situates suffering and hope as important instruments in the Christian life. This is a great book, both as an introduction to beginners and as a reminder to longtime believers.
