Perhaps no one else has ever faced as much hardship, opposition or relentless suffering as the apostle Paul. And yet through all of it Paul stood firm in Christ and remained faithful to the very end. The power of that example has held John MacArthur's attention for years.

Here he sets out nine unwavering convictions that contributed to such perseverance, beginning with being convinced of the superiority of the new covenant. In an age when pastoral failure and burnout are increasingly common, the book is a call to endurance, encouraging pastors to stand firm in their calling and not lose heart, whatever God sends their way. Short, and best read slowly.
