Endorsements (${ productEndorsements.length })
“A foray into most Christian bookstores will yield a host of topical devotionals. Sadly the topic is invariably ‘me’; my Bible reading, my prayer life, my relationships, and so on. In their book, Portraits of Christ, Gordon Keddie and David Whitla have done what was so needed. They have produced a devotional book in the tradition of the Puritans that will cause us to meditate on the beauty of the person and work of Jesus Christ. It is biblical, theological, and very pastoral. It will warm the hearts of believers and kindle an ever increasing thanksgiving to the Lord for such a Saviour as this. ”
JEFF KINGSWOOD
senior minister, Grace Presbyterian Church (ARP), Woodstock, ON, Canada
“Christ is the best of subjects for our study, and Gordon Keddie and David Whitla helpfully mine the unsearchable riches of Christ through forty biblical pictures of the Savior. Would you like to know Christ as your food, light, shelter, shepherd, and much more? Here is sound doctrine for heartfelt devotion in daily life. ”
JOEL R. BEEKE
president, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary
“This is exactly the devotional that I have been wishing someone would write.…Several have tried to provide a deep, but accessible devotional guide to Christology. Dr. Whitla and Rev. Keddie have actually succeeded. This book will enrich your soul with a fuller knowledge of who Christ is and how our Reformed tradition has so well read the entirety of Scripture to be about him. ”
HARRISON PERKINS
assistant minister, London City Presbyterian Church, England
“…In this "picture album" of Jesus, these two gifted preachers, who enjoyed a blessed season of pulpit partnership, use communion messages to paint on the canvas of our minds the glorious Scriptural descriptions of the Lord. I guarantee that if you begin each of these devotional chapters with prayer to have your eyes opened to see Jesus, you will end the chapter with praise as you look upon Him. ”
BARRY YORK
president, Reformed Presbyterian Theological Seminary
“What better than to immerse yourself in the kind of book that helps you live in greater awareness and communion with your Lord and Savior Jesus Christ? Through their warm and insightful volume, Gordon Keddie and David Whitla help us see and know Jesus better through Portraits of Christ given to us in the Scriptures. This is the kind of book you will want to read again. ”
