About this book

'On all my travels, if I had the Gospels, Paul's letter to the Romans and Andrew Ollerton's book I would need nothing else!'
Sir David Suchet

With his trademark straightforward teaching style, Andrew Ollerton guides readers through Romans - one of the most theologically complex books of the Bible - to discover how an understanding of Paul's longest letter unlocks the whole story of Scripture and helps us make sense of life.

It's been said that if the New Testament were the Himalayas, Paul's Epistle to the Romans would be Mount Everest. The chapters of this book therefore imagine the contents of the letter as a great mountain landscape - complex, challenging but highly rewarding. Together, we will take on the challenge of ascending to the summit, taking in the view and then descending to put it into practice on the other side.

Readers will not only come away with ...a greater understanding of Romans, but as invigorated disciples, equipped for the adventure of life and faith, and emboldened to share the Gospel with others.

Each chapter includes suggested Bible readings and questions for reflection, making this book a great choice for devotional reading.

Romans is a perfect follow-up read for fans of Andrew's first book The Bible, those who've completed Bible Society's 'The Bible Course', or the Alpha course.

On all my travels, if I had the Gospels, Paul's letter to the Romans and Andrew Ollerton's book I would need nothing else!

Sir David Suchet CBE English actor known for his work on British stage and television

Romans is the Himalayas of the Bible and Andrew Ollerton is your sure-footed guide. Read this one slowly, and with your Bible open; it will do you so much good.

Glen Scrivener Evangelist and blogger

Have you ever attempted to read, let alone understand Romans? Andrew Ollerton is determined to make Romans accessible to the normal Christian. Key truths are stated, explained, illustrated and applied. The church owes Andrew a huge debt for opening up this glorious letter.

Rico Tice Founder, Christianity Explored Ministries

A grasp of the truth of Paul's epistle to the Romans is utterly life changing, yet so many believers are happier sticking to the gospels or the psalms. Andrew Ollerton's book is such an attractive, approachable invitation to modern believers to plumb its depths and ascend its heights.

There is perhaps no more urgent task for today's church than to re-engage Christians with the story of Scripture, and Andrew Ollerton has a wonderful gift of doing just that. Read this book and you will re-discover the riches of the gospel and the grandeur of the story we are all invited to be part of.

Andrew manages to take the Scripture and make it relevant to today's audience. A blend of the serious and humorous, masterly conveyed in its original context.

There are parts of the Bible and Christian life that look like massive mountains we would love to climb but just seem to defeat us quickly. Andrew Ollerton does the job of an expert mountain guide helping you to understand, enjoy and apply Romans to your Christian life. It is an adventure that Christians, young and old, will treasure and then lead others on the same path.

Jonathan Thomas Pastor of Cornerstone Church, Abergavenny.

This is an enlightening and engaging guide to the highest peak in the mountain range of new testament letters. Andrew Ollerton makes difficult paths seem easy, as he takes us on this tour. We get insights into the cultural setting of the Bible, as well as how we should apply it to life today.

Andrew's historical insights and storytelling make it a great resource for small groups and I will be journeying through it again with friends. Ultimately, this book is a valuable reminder of the reality of the Gospel.
