"Rejoicing in Christ has become for me a tool of choice for helping
both new and mature believers grow in Christ. In this book, British
evangelical Michael Reeves aims to teach the reader not only about
Christ, which he does with excellence, but far more to delight and
rejoice in him.
*Daniel J. Dillard, New Horizons, August-September 2016*
"Rejoicing in Christ is just what the title implies—a delighted
feasting on the person and work of our Lord. . . .In short,
Rejoicing in Christ lives up to its title. Not every Christian will
read it, of course, but I cannot imagine that Christian who could
read it and not sense his mind stimulated and his heart stirred.
Read and enjoy—you will find your soul nourished and your heart
enlarged. This will likely be the most enjoyable book you've read
in a long time."
*Fred G. Zaspel, Books at a Glance, May 20, 2015*
"Rejoicing in Christ helps us celebrate who Christ is, His work on
earth, His death and resurrection, His anticipated return, and how
we share in His life. It aims for something deeper than a new
technique or a call to action. In an age that virtually compels us
to look at ourselves, Michael Reeve's calls us to look at Christ.
As we focus our hearts on Him, we see how He is our life, our
righteousness, our holiness, and our hope."
*Facts Trends, May/June/July 2015*
"Can you talk too much about Christ? Michael Reeves argues no! This
book calls us to rejoice in the one in whom is found all joy. No
small Jesus here—Jesus writ large and made much of. Enjoy this book
and enjoy the Christ to whom this book points."
*Josh Moody, pastor of College Church, Wheaton, IL*
"This is how to write Christology: biblical, theological,
historical, pastoral and spiritual! Theology at its best from one
of today's best theologians."
*Simon Ponsonby, pastor of theology, St Aldate's Church,
Oxford*
"Mike Reeves has done it again. This is another rich, deep, simple,
joyful, thrilling book—theology that does what theology should,
pointing us to Jesus, marveling and celebrating."
*Andrew Wilson, elder at Kings Church, Eastbourne, and author of
several books, including If God Then What? Wondering Aloud About
Truth, Origins Redemption*
"Reeves has expounded a crucial and central doctrine of the gospel
with clarity and verve. This is a scintillating treatment of a
vital subject."
*Robert Letham, lecturer in systematic theology, Wales Evangelical
School of Theology*
"Michael Reeves has written a simple and yet elegant introduction
to the work of Jesus Christ. He provides a wonderful overview of
Jesus in eternity, Jesus triumphing over evil and Jesus reigning
forever. Reeves shows that for believers, our life is from Christ,
and Christ is our life! His account of Christian doctrine about
Jesus is complemented with a treasure trove of historical artwork
depicting Jesus, stimulating the mind as well as the heart."
*Michael F. Bird, lecturer in theology at Ridley College,
Melbourne, Australia*
"God created us 'to glorify and enjoy him forever.' But what does
it mean to enjoy God? Michael Reeves has a knack not only for
making great truths accessible, but for leading us to bask in the
warmth of Christ. Our mediator not only in salvation, but in
creation and the consummation, Christ isn't just a gift-giver—he is
the Gift. As an example of devotional theology, this book stands
out. If you want to love Christ more, you need a better view of
him. Rejoicing in Christ gives you a front-row seat."
*Michael Horton, J. Gresham Machen Professor of Theology,
Westminster Seminary California*
