Since you’re reading this review here on my blog, there’s a good chance you like reading blog posts. As I read In Christ Alone by Sinclair Ferguson, I kept thinking that the feel of the book was a bit bloggish, but in the best way—like a blog set up to focus on the blessings of life in Christ.

This book is a collection of short essays which started as articles written for Eternity Magazine and Tabletalk over the course of twenty years. There are fifty short chapters, none longer than four pages, grouped in six sections. The topics of the sections are

• the ministry of the Spirit
• the privileges of grace
• the expression of the gospel in our lives
• the faithful life.
