MEDIA REVIEWS

'Tom Wright is, as always, brilliant at distilling immense scholarship into vivid, clear and accessible form.' * Rowan Williams *
N.T. Wright is the most prolific biblical scholar in a generation. Some say he is the most important apologist since C. S. Lewis. * Christianity Today *
Through his sermonic delivery, which is accessible, stimulating and relevant, Wright deconstructs the false barrier that has been erected between academic and practical theology. As a biblical scholar, he brings us into the world of second temple Judaism and helps us to set the Good News in its Hellenistic context. As a pastor, he gently guides us into prayer, through his meditation on the Lord's Prayer in the final chapter, giving us lots of suggestions about how we can re-engage with the Gospel as news. -- Eimhin Walsh * The Church of Ireland Gazette *
