GAVIN CHILDRESS
The Gospel of Luke makes remarkable reading. It introduces us to many people the other Gospels don’t mention; it shows the compassion of Jesus in a special way; it is the only Gospel written by a Gentile. Let Gavin Childress guide you through its message in easy stages, and there is plenty to think (and talk) about in the discussion points at the end of each chapter.
Gavin Childress has been a pastor at Grace Baptist Church, Tottenham, North London, since 1987. He has always enjoyed introducing people to the Bible and the gospel of God’s saving grace. He and his wife Cathy have five children. Gavin is co-author with Audrey Dooley of Reading your Bible—A starter’s guide, also published by Day One.
There are no greater books in all the world than the four Gospels. There is no better way for the newcomer to learn of Jesus Christ than to read through one of them as it introduces the God-man, not in abstract theories but in the encounters and conversations of everyday life. Gavin Childress has written a clear guide to Luke’s Gospel that is well-suited to assist the first-time reader through what may be strange territory, explaining its setting in history and in the whole Bible, and – even more — bringing Jesus near to the issues and concerns of today.’
