Every day, we must reorient our thoughts around the unchanging truth of Christ: who He is and who we are in Him.In this yearlong devotional, Dr. Sinclair Fe...

The Holy Spirit, once forgotten, has been "rediscovered" in the twentieth century - or has he? Sinclair Ferguson believes we should rephrase this common assertion: "While his work has been recognised, the Spirit himself remains to many Christians an anonymous, faceless aspect of the divine being." In order to redress this balance, Ferguson seeks to recover the who of the Spirit fully as much as the what and how.Ferguson's study is rooted and driven by the scriptura...
