From the Back Cover
If you ask believers what their favorite book of the Bible is, many will say Romans. And if you ask which specific chapter in the Bible has had the most impact on their lives, a number of them would name the eighth chapter of Romans--and for good reason.
"If the Bible was a mountain range, it is said, Romans 8 would be its highest peak. I can say after reading this study that Trillia Newbell is sure-footed mountain guide that will help you climb this great passage and get some of its best breath-taking views of God and our salvation in Christ. I highly recommend this volume!"
-Tim Keller, founding pastor of Redeemer City to City
"Trillia Newbell [guides] us into the text, orienting this crucial chapter within the book of Romans as a whole, and tracing its cohesive message from start to finish. "If God is For Us" is six weeks well spent for any earnest student of the Bible."
