Though originally published nearly seventy years ago, the book maintains its relevance today.

Please allow me to direct you to my blog post about this book. I include 2 embedded youtube videos, one link to play.google.com which does an amazing job in presenting the book in various formats, and this block quote from page 69:
"When Jesus said, "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest," he was speaking not as a philosopher calling pupils to his school; but as One who was in possession of rich stores of divine grace. And this much at least the disciples knew. They knew well in their heart of hearts that they had no right to stand in the Kingdom; they knew that only Jesus could win them entrance there. They did not yet know fully how Jesus could make them children of God; but they did know that He could do it and He alone. And in that trust all the theology of the great Christian creeds was in expectation contained."
