Dr. R.C. Sproul, the founder and chairman of Ligonier Ministries, is known for his ability to communicate the deep truths of the Christian faith. He is chancellor of Reformation Bible College, preaches at Saint Andrew's Chapel, and is the featured teacher on the daily radio program Renewing Your Mind. He has written more than one hundred books.
"'R.C. Sproul, ' someone said to me in the 1970s, 'is the finest
communicator in the Reformed world.' Now, three decades later, his
skills honed by long practice, his understanding deepened by years
of prayer, meditation, and testing (as Martin Luther counseled),
R.C. shares the fruit of what has become perhaps his greatest love:
feeding and nourishing his own congregation at St. Andrew's from
the Word of God and building them up in faith and fellowship and in
Christian living and serving. The St. Andrew's Expositional
Commentary will be welcomed throughout the world. It promises to
have all R.C.'s hallmarks: clarity and liveliness, humor and
pathos, always expressed in application to the mind, will, and
affections. R.C.'s ability to focus on 'the big picture, ' his
genius of never saying too much, leaving his hearers satisfied yet
wanting more, never making the Word dull, are all present in these
expositions. They are his gift to the wider church. May they
nourish God's people well and serve as models of the kind of
ministry for which we continue to hunger."--Dr. Sinclair B.
Ferguson
"How exciting! Thousands of us have long been indebted to R.C.
Sproul the teacher, and now, through the St. Andrew's Expositional
Commentary, we are indebted to Sproul the preacher, whose sermons
are thoroughly biblical, soundly doctrinal, warmly practical, and
wonderfully readable. Sproul masterfully presents us with the 'big
picture' of each pericope in a dignified yet conversational style
that accentuates the glory of God and meets the real needs of
sinful people like us. This series of volumes is an absolute must
for every Reformed preacher and church member who yearns to grow in
the grace and knowledge of Christ Jesus. I predict that Sproul's
pulpit ministry in written form will do for Christians in the
twenty-first century what Martyn Lloyd-Jones's sermonic
commentaries did for us last century. Tolle lege, and buy these
volumes for your friends."--Dr. Joel R. Beeke
"I tell my students again and again, 'You need to buy good
commentaries and do so with some discernment.' Among them there
must be preacher's commentaries, for not all commentaries are the
same. Some may tell you what the text means but provide little help
in answering the question, 'How do I preach this text?' R.C. Sproul
is a legend in our time. His preaching has held us in awe for half
a century, and these pages represent the fruit of his latest
exposition, coming as they do at the very peak of his abilities and
insights. I am ecstatic at the prospect of reading the St. Andrew's
Expositional Commentary series. It represents Reformed theology on
fire, delivered from a pastor's heart in a vibrant congregation of
our time. Essential reading."--Dr. Derek W.H. Thomas
"R.C. Sproul is the premier theologian of our day, an extraordinary
instrument in the hand of the Lord. Possessed with penetrating
insight into the text of Scripture, Dr. Sproul is a gifted
expositor and world-class teacher, endowed with a strategic grasp
and command of the inspired Word. Since stepping into the pulpit of
St. Andrew's and committing himself to the weekly discipline of
biblical exposition, this noted preacher has demonstrated a rare
ability to explicate and apply God's Word. I wholeheartedly
recommend the St. Andrew's Expositional Commentary to all who long
to know the truth better and experience it more deeply in a
life-changing fashion. Here is an indispensable tool for digging
deeper into God's Word. This is a must-read for every
Christian."--Dr. Steven J. Lawson
"R.C. Sproul, well-known as a master theologian and extraordinary
communicator, now shows that he is a powerful, insightful, helpful
expository preacher. This collection of sermons is of great value
for churches and Christians everywhere."--Dr. W. Robert Godfrey
