Rezensionen / Stimmen
...scholarly and spiritual, rigorous and readable, academic and accessible, filled with hefty doses of wit and warmth. I read it on an eight hour flight across the Atlantic and arrived with the feeling of my soul having been in a good warm shower. -- Charles Price 'It is a delight to read and mirrors the joy which threads its way through Philippians.' -- Derek Tidball Here is Dr. Mitchell the steelworker, the schoolteacher, the academic lecturer, the poet, the family man, the evangelist and the courageous pastor pouring his heart out about the things that are his "raison d'etre". I'd recommend this book to anybody. -- Derick Bingham
