The writings of John Stott continue to reach millions of readers, and this is one of his earliest and most useful books. Originally published in 1954 as Men with a Message, it introduces readers to the distinct message of each of the New Testament writers - Mark, Matthew, Luke, John, Paul and others - rather than treating the collection as a single undifferentiated voice.

This publication presents anew the text of the 1994 edition, which was updated and expanded by Stephen Motyer at Stott's own invitation. It remains among the most accessible ways into the New Testament for a reader who wants more than a survey and less than a critical introduction, and it works equally well as the basis for a teaching series.
