Mark: Jesus, Servant and Savior (2 Volumes in 1 / ESV Edition)

R. Kent Hughes

The Gospel of Mark resounds with the dynamic power of the Lord Jesus Christ, a message that is desperately needed in an age of aggressive evil and apathetic faith.

In what is perhaps the most dramatic and action-packed of the Synoptic Gospels, Mark's writing continues to inspire increased commitment to the Lord in the Church at large. His portrayal of Christ as the Servant-Savior takes on fresh relevance in these expositions by respected pastor and author R. Kent Hughes.

With careful exegesis and instructive illustrations, Hughes draws many practical lessons for everyday living and ministry from the Biblical text. Written to help preachers and Bible teachers communicate God's Word more effectively, this engaging commentary unpacks the Gospel of Mark with clarity and passion.

The book of Hebrews conveys a double dose of spiritual power: it not only presents the supremacy of Jesus Christ unlike any other New Testament book, but it also repeatedly demands a heart response from the reader. No one can study Hebrews and not grow spiritually as he or she comes face to face with God's one and only Son. In this insightful commentary, readers will find a gold mine of helpful discussion related to a book of the Bible that is easily misunderstood and often overlooked. With divisions and outlines that are never forced but flow naturally from the text, this updated volume in Crossway's Preaching the Word series will be a great resource for anyone studying or teaching the book of Hebrews.

Part of the Preaching the Word series.
