I would recommend this to seminarians, young pastors in need of encouragement, and anyone who wants to know (or be reminded) why the classical Protestant articulation of the gospel remains earth-shattering to many today. There's a fullness and churchliness to it that abbreviated evangelical treatments of the gospel don't always capture, though I've read exceptions.
