Reflections and ruminations! The Life of Christ by Machen, the last of the Great Princeton Theologians, contains nine wonderful chapters on Christ’s life and work. One of the most useful studies, with helpful questions at the conclusion of each chapter, this book begins with Israel under Persian rule. Setting the historic tone of Christ’s birth, which is the ultimate goal of history, Machen leads us through His baptism, early ministry in Judaea and Galilee, His teachings and a period of popularity culminating in the death and resurrection. Absorbing!
