The Cross of Christ

De: John R. W. Stott

Narrado por: Simon Vance

The universal symbol of the Christian faith is neither a crib nor a manger, but a gruesome cross. Yet many people are unclear about its meaning, and cannot understand why Christ had to die. In this magisterial and best-selling book, John Stott explains the significance of Christ's cross and answers the objections commonly brought against biblical teaching on the atonement.

John Stott's modern classic is as sharp and pertinent as ever it was. It combines an excellent biblical exposition and a characteristically thoughtful study of Christian belief with a searching call to the church to live under the cross.

This is an incredible audible book

This book is a Christian classic, and rightfully so. And I honestly could not think of a better narrator for this particular work than Simon Vance, who seemed to perfectly capture the tone of John Stott’s writing. What we have here is a magnificent classic that, in both content and narration, makes for an enjoyable listen. I’ve listened to a lot of audiobooks, and I rarely comment. But I couldn’t help myself with this production.

A must. Beautifully written and incredibly rich. This is poetic theology grounded in Scriptural truth.

Brilliant!

So much learning, wisdom and spiritual food. I felt like I had rejoined the Bible school of my youth, only in a more profound and systematic study of the richness of the gospel of the cross. This is a must read for anyone who wants to go deeper in understanding what Christianity is all about.

Best of Stott

Excellent book by Stott and one of my favorite books next to the Bible. Blessed.

Excellent

Between the excellence of Stott's writing and the narration, the cross of Christ is set forth in all the reality of a fine British documentary.

Classic for a reason

This is an excellent and thorough look at the cross. What an edifying and encouraging read!

Set Your Heart Aright

Stott guides heart and head alike to Christ’s suffering, so that we both acknowledge His authority and learn to love Him for His compassion. Each paragraph is an antidote to poor thinking, yet at the same time this is no mere intellectual exercise. Stott instead shows a path to Christ’s painful and effective surgery for our heart, learning to love the One that can alone remove our bitterness, our insecurity, our pitiable self-love. Simon Vance’s cadence gives a warm and thoughtful presentation of this most valuable of books.
