50 reasons why Jesus came to die

One of the books we offer as a gift to first time guests at our Sunday gathering is John Piper's Fifty Reasons Why Jesus Came To Die.

It is a short little book and yet it is profoundly deep and penetrating when you consider 50 reasons the Bible speaks of for Jesus coming to die.

You can read it for FREE online here.
